agree  Margaret Schroeder: If it's in reference to handwork, handwriting, etc., the correct word is"neat", not "clean". That is why, dear Anonymous, we need more context.

  -> and that, dear Goodwords, is why I do not even bother trying to figure out what he/she means. It is like going to the doctor and say, "Doctor, it hurts!", "where does it hurt?", "I don´t know".

¿Cómo usarías tu frase? Todo depende del contexto, pero si dices por ejemplo:

\"Me gusta este cuarto por estar limpio\" una de las posibles traducciones sería:

\"I like this room because it\'s clean\"

Siempre es recomendable dar algo de contexto, de lo contrario todos estamos adivinando.
