English term or phrase: where the rubber meets the road
Merhaba,

Aslında yukarıdaki deyimin karşılığının "zurnanın zırt dediği yer" olabileceğini biliyorum fakat bu deyimi kullanacağım metine bu dil düzlemi pek uymuyor.

Aklına başka bir karşılık gelen var mıdır?

Teşekkürler.

agree  ATIL KAYHAN: Bence bu teknik bir konudur ve çevirisi de teknik olmalidir. Varyasyonlar tabii ki olabilir, birlestigi/bulustugu gibi, ama bence çeviri budur. Bu noktada artik baglam bile o derece kritik degildir.
