Language pair: |
Spanish > English |

General |
|
Level of diffculty: |
Easy / medium |
|
Word or term in question: |
de haberla |
|
Context: |
De tan asociales sujetos cabía esperar cualquier cosa, incluso que arrastrados por su perversidad fallecieran en señalados días de fiesta, el colmo, pues los días de fiesta estaban en los calendarios para celebrarlos con la misa mayor, el concierto de la banda municipal, el arroz con pollo comido en familia y la corrida de toros, de haberla, y no para enlutarlos con un cadáver. |

My comment:
I changed my mind about"if any" proposed by one of the translators (I was too quick on the draw!) and I apologize to him/her.It would suggest it's rarely the case. Now on the contrary it's nearly always the case. The phrase means literally "as there should be".

I agree: it's shorter and more idiomatic than "should there be one" But it,s the same meaning.
