“You get the picture”












6















The literal translation that is found to be most closely equivalent to the English meaning of this is




Вы поЛучите картину,




but I don’t know if that is just the literal meaning of saying ‘someone is receiving a picture’ or the phrasal meaning in English.



‘You get the picture’ in English is a way of saying that ‘you get the idea’ of something.



Thank you in advance.
