Wandering a giant hedge maze is fun until the sun sets and you cannot find the exit.
| The foliage of this maze is thick and the path is very narrow. | El follaje de este laberinto es espeso y el camino es muy angosto. |
Intensive framing: Con lo ... que
To emphasize just how much a quality affects your situation, use con lo. This highly expressive structure highlights an intense degree—like overwhelming size or creeping darkness—as the direct cause of (or concession to) your frustration.
Build it with con lo + an adjective or adverb + que, followed by the indicative. It translates closely to "With how [adjective]..." or "Given how [adjective]...".
| With how frustrating it is to walk here, we need to find a shortcut. | Con lo frustrante que es caminar aquí, necesitamos encontrar un atajo. |
| Given how identical everything is, every intersection misleads us. | Con lo idéntico que es todo, cada cruce nos despista. |
| With how dark it is, this narrow space is terrifying. | Con lo oscuro que está, este espacio angosto es aterrador. |
| Given how immense the park is, no shortcut is going to help. | Con lo inmenso que es el parque, ningún atajo va a ayudar. |
