Grammar point: Fixed binomials and irreversible pairs (part 2)
At C2, choosing a natural binomial also means controlling the judgment it carries. A familiar pair can suggest loyalty, acquiescence, or dismissal beyond its literal parts. In statements about an institutional investor's duties, compare «a las duras y a las maduras», «a ciencia y paciencia», «por activa y por pasiva», and «sin ton ni son».
