you want debes / tienes que llegar a hacerlo Explanation: 2 informal with infinitive Should or need to do something. ‘you don't want to believe everything you hear’ Synonyms should, ought, need, must https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/want En el segundo ejemplo quizá: ... lo que tienes que llegar a hacer... Creo que hay varias opciones en español, pero dependerá de todo el tono que uses en el resto de tu traducción. Yo me inclinaría por un "Tienes que poder hacerlo tan bien que..." Me parece más positivo que "Deberías hacerlo tan bien que..." Aunque un "Tendrías que poder hacerlo tan bien..." sería también educado, me parece mejor dar una instrucción positiva, sin ser brusco, pero tampoco "blandengue"... Saludos cordiales. |
