No Es Para Menos

¡Hola!

 Do you know how to express the logical outcome of a circumstance or event in Spanish? First let´s remember what types of phrases we would use in English. Phrases such as not surprisingly, no wonder, quite right too, with good reason, not without good reason, and rightly so all convey the near certain outcome of a situation. So, how do you put that into words in Spanish? The answer is no es para menos. Look at this example.

 Roger está muy preocupado y no es para menos. Tiene una hipoteca y acaba de perder su empleo. 

(Roger is very worried and with good reason. He has a mortgage y he has just lost his job.)

So, how do we express the logical outcome of a circumstance or event? The answer is no es para menos.

¡Así que ya lo sabemos! Now we know! 😀
