Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature | | English term or phrase: put up against | Hola,
un hombre le da a una mujer un amuleto y le dice que ha de llevarlo puesto siempre. Ella le dice:
If I'm going to be wearing the charm, I want you to have this for protection. One of the sisters took a trip to the Holy Land and got this vial of water from the Jordan River. She then had it blessed by a bishop that she met on the trip. ***For protective properties, I'll put my holy water up against your voodoo charms any day of the week***.
No entiendo muy bien lo que quiere decir la última frase.¿Será simplemente que ella se ofrece a llevar su amuleto todos los días si él acepta el agua bendita?
Gracias |
