Vale mas prevenir que curar Explanation: Variation: Mas vale prevenir que curar (Sorry I don't have Spanish diacritics) The title in English comes from "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." The equivalent of this in Spanish is the one given above, so you can play with the words to come up with a suitable translation of the newsletter title. Best of luck! |
