TODAY'S IDIOM: LET BYGONES BE BYGONES

"LET BYGONES BE BYGONES"



Allow the unpleasant things that have happened in the past to be forgotten.

Example: Jill: Why don't you want to invite Ellen to your party? Jane: She was rude to me at the off ice picnic. Jill: But that was six months ago. Let bygones be bygones!

Ya lo pasado, pasado / Olvidar el pasado.

  • Nancy held a grudge against her teacher for a long time, but she finally decided to let bygones be bygones / Nancy le guardaba rencor a su maestra durante mucho tiempo, pero finalmente decidió que ya lo pasado, pasado.

  • Let's let bygones be bygones and be friends again / Vamos a olvidar el pasado y volver a ser amigos. 

Additional examples:

  • There is a feeling here that we should let bygones be bygones and move on to more important things.

  • Why can't you put all that bad feeling behind you and let bygones be bygones?
