En cualquier caso, considero que las traducciones al Inglés de las obras de los poetas simbolístas deberían contener este tipo de figuras retóricas también. |

I observe that in American Spanish, people uses the term "ello"" in a very similar way the English speakers use "it". However, in Spain, generally we use more the term "eso" instead of "ello". In adition to this the Spaniards usually do not use personal pronouns before the verbs, so when we have to translate a phrase with "it" eg: it is a very big problem, decimos es un gran problema instead of ello es un gran problema.

PS The word ello sounds like the Caribbean way of saying ellos (them -masculine). In that part of Latin America the last S in a word is often not pronounced or sometimes pronounced like a soft pronunciation of the Spanish letter J.

explorator, acá se usa "eso" también e igual, no queda claro si aprendiz5000 se refería a eso exactamente, como tal vez intentó marcar chileno.
explorator, here we also use "eso" as the main form, and equally it isn't clear enough if aprendiz5000 was referring to that, as chileno maybe tried to point out.
