| chew off more than i can spill abarcar más de lo que puedo derramar Explanation: Es un juego de palabras que se refiere a "bit off more than he could chew" (quien mucho abarca, poco aprieta). Ten en cuenta que es literatura, y que el autor quiso hacer un juego litarario parafraseando el dicho. Trata de captar la idea, sin ser literal. |
