Another spanish saying and proverb 77
Monday, November 20, 2017 @ 9:23 AM
Today, I would like to talk to you about a very curious saying: "Blotch and new account".
According to the Dictionary of the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language, a blotch is a stain produced, on a paper, by crossing out the written or drawn or by pouring ink on it.
A blotch at the beginning of the text
But blotch also means “Imperfection that fades or makes something ugly”.
Through this figurative phrase, it is expressed the purpose, not always sincere, to correct and throw into oblivion any affront or vicious conduct, and continue as if nothing had happened. So, for example, that dipsómano (a person who drinks alcohol without control), whom the doctor told him, after convincing him with great patience: "I warn you: the liver and alcohol are incompatible.". The patient replied: "Oh, yes ...?. Well, doctor, I will not eat liver again.”.
The doctor worried
A healthy human liver
Well, I hope that you will like to know this saying.
Until my next post, kind regards,
Luis.
