"Here's the thing"

[satchrocks]

I'm assuming that "Aqui es la cosa" isn't a good idiomatic translation...



Any translations for "Here is the thing?" (I know it's kind of a "filler" phrase, but could be useful to know).:D

Yo diría, deja que te explique o simplemente esto es lo que hay.

Here's the thing is an idiomatic phrase we use as a filler and it indicates we are about to explain something. I think a good translation in Spanish would be:

Here's the thing...
Lo que pasa es que...
Mira, te lo voy a explicar...
El asunto aquí es...
etc.
