TODAY'S SAYING: IF IT'S NOT ONE THING IT'S ANOTHER


If it's not one thing it's another


When one thing goes wrong,then another,and another.


Se utiliza "If it's not one thing it's another" cuando varias cosas salen mal en un lapso corto de tiempo.

Ejemplos:

Primero la maquina dejo de funcionar,luego,hubo un apagon. Si no es una cosa es otra ("First the machine stopped working,then,there was a blackout. If it's not one thing it's another").

Tengo que rehacer los reportes de produccion por tercera ocasion.Si no es una cosa es otra. (" I need to redo the production reports for the third time.If it's not one thing it's another")


Ejemplos adicionales:



" We haven't launched the new line of products because there has been several flaws in most of them.If it's not oen thing it's another".


" No.I won't be able to get there by noon. I still have to visit two other  plants and report back at the office.I know,if it's not one thing it's another.
