Me pregunto si hay alguna expresión en inglés para decir que a alguien le queda grande algo, en un sentido metafórico o figurado. Dos ejemplos:"A esa empresa le queda grande ese mercado"."Parece que esa situación le queda grande, no creo que tenga la formación adecuada para ese trabajo". Muchas gracias por adelantado.

Hello, that is correct and in the case of"gran" it can mean something that is appreciated, expensive or very striking even it can be synonym of grande But be careful gran and grande usually change meaning if they are behind or in front of the noun. Una gran persona (A person with great qualities) Una persona grande (A tall and burly person)

I am trying to explain to my students the differences between mayor/menor/más grande/más pequeño. I have read a lot of threads about the subject but I am still a little confused about the general rules. I was under the impression that mayor and menor are used with age, to mean older and younger than respectively.

5."di grande rilievo, importanza" 6."grave, difficile da sopportare" (es. una grossa fatica) 7. in senso figurato,"privo di raffinatezza" Direi che il significato di"grosso" nel tuo articolo sia il 2 o 5 e quindi intercambiabile con"grande". Il significato principale di"grande" coincide quasi con il primo significato di"grosso" cioè:

没错,星巴克严格的说,有6种杯型,分别叫solo,short,tall,grande,venti,trenta。 但是如果你去星巴克要小杯,他们说没有,可能是真的没有。 因为具体到每家门店,进什么货不进什么,完全由门店负责进货的主管『这个人』做决定。

I don't believe the expression"Parquet de Grande Instance" is used in French. As it was said before, the Tribunal de Grande Instance (TGI) is a court dealing with a certain degree of offences (crimes -under the FR legal definition- and affairs over a certain importance). Other affairs are dealt with by the Tribunal d'Instance.

Grande doesn't change with masculine and feminine nouns: un grande uomo ed una grande donna (it's also valid for the plural form, grandi uomini e grandi donne).

"Grande!" ha lo stesso significato di"sei un grande!". Nella canzone di Mina penso ci fosse un significato leggermente diverso, piu' legato alla grandezza d'animo, di personalita'.

Buongiorno a tutti, Non ho mai saputo se esiste in inglese un acronimo per GDO e DO, che stanno per Grande Distribuzione Organizzata (ovvero distribuzione nel canale delle grandi catene di iper e supermercati) e Distribuzione Organizzata (ovvero distribuzione tramite grossisti e distributori che servono i piccoli negozi indipendenti o affiliati ad una catena di superettes).
