| | Is that an expression which means: There's no other possibility, you accept that or nothing?
If so, I think it should be : "Take it or leave it" |

LeinNumărul mesajelor scrise: 3389 | Lilian, no, the expression doesn't mean 'take it or leave it', rather ' both sides will have to compromise a bit'.
I would choose C.K.'s suggestion: It's a matter of give and take'. |

| | Oh OK, that was just an idea that crossed my mind.
So it would sound better:
"It's a matter of giving and taking"
or
"It's about giving and taking"
What do you all think? CC: maki_sindja C.K. |
