 * I think is used with an idiomatic meaning, basically expressing disagreement together with a refusal to enter or continue an argument. If  has the same meaning, it is IMO includable.  --Lambiam 22:16, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with Lambiam. The same applies to 🇨🇬. Canonicalization (talk) 11:15, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. The Spanish clause does not coincide with the English and French clauses considered since it employs and therefore it is causal instead of conditional. The particular meaning of the English and French clauses is based on it being conditional by use of the conjunctions at the beginning. HeliosX (talk) 21:27, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
 * But, regardless of the literal form, can’t it likewise signal disagreement, like how it is used here in a modern translation of Tom Sawyer? Obviously, Tom doesn’t agree being called out for a lie by the new-comer boy, but does not appear inclined to argue either. The English original has “Aw—take a walk!”. In modern parlance, “Get lost!”. --Lambiam 07:49, 16 February 2020 (UTC)
 * This is also not right because the underlying English version from 1876 has "'Your saying so doesn't make it so.'" there and the Spanish expression both in the book and in general just means "because you say so", which makes sense as well in this book.
