Another spanish saying and proverb 78
Wednesday, December 13, 2017 @ 10:53 PM

      Today I would like to share with you a very popular Spanish saying: "Look for a needle in a haystack".

A needle

A haystack

Blocks of hay​​​​​​​

      That phrase means to engage in something so arduous, if not impossible, as the familiar phrase itself expresses, in a figurative way, even though in fact, needles have occasionally been found, in the most unsuspected places, such as palafitos, pre-Christian Egyptian tombs and even caverns of the Neolithic.

      For example, you could say: "What do you want me to say, boy?. To me, that pretension of yours seems to me more like looking for a needle in a haystack".

      Well, I hope that you will like to know this saying, in case you did not it.

      Until my next post, kind regards,

Luis.
