"WARTS AND ALL"
If you show something warts and all, you show it exactly as it is without trying to hide any of its faults or weaknesses.
Example: Are you sure you want to read the first draft? You'll see it warts and all, with all the mistakes and all the bad writing still there.
Con todo y sus defectos.
Example sentences:
- People don't want to see an idealised version of his life. They want to know the real story, warts and all / La gente no quiere ver una versión idealizada de su vida. Ellos quieren saber la verdadera historia, con todo y sus defectos.
- The Kurt Cobain biography is good because it's a real warts and all account of his life, and it doesn't try to hide the more disturbing parts of his life / La biografía de Kurt Cobain es buena porque es real con todo y los defectos de su vida y no trata de ocultar las partes bochornosas de su vida.
Additional examples:
- It's a great performance warts and all.
- Yes, we admire each other very much, warts and all.
