Out of nowhere
The phrase refers to something or someone that no one knows the place of origin. Example:
He came out of nowhere. It appeared out of nowhere. How do the above sentences translate in Spanish? Muchas gracias

Please, will someone clarify "vino"? I looked it up and it means wine or other fruity adjective so the phrase "vino de la nada" does not make sense to me or at least it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the translation of "out of nowhere"Forgive me for not understanding

"vino" is the past tense of "venir" (to come)
