when something is very evident and needs no explanations, we say cae por su peso . IS there anything similar in English?
Ejemplo: - Cómo sabes que no se pueden plantar árboles encima del tunel de la M30 - cae por su peso, porque las raices lo destruirían Last edited by Rusty; September 13, 2009 at 05:01 PM.
