Example: At this point the user can enter a number or an 'o' for system, in which case the system will assign the borrower number.» en el caso contrario = otherwise .
Example: Initials, even when used consistently, are never to be employed as headings; when they are used consistently, the name for which the initials stand must be chosen (if it can be discovered), otherwise entry must be made under title.» en el caso de = for ; in association with ; in the context of .
Example: For newly created authority entries the date recorded is the date the entry was created.

Example: Facet analysis in UDC is, at best, inconsistent. Example: The genesis of this brave new world of solid state logic, in which bibliographic data are reduced to phantasmagoria on the faces of cathode-ray tubes (CRT), extends at most only three-quarters of a decade into the dim past. Example: Ideally we would like both to maximise recall, or the number of relevant documents retrieved, at the same time ensuring that the documents retrieved all remain relevant.

Example: Further changes in the external world serve to render judgments, valid at the moment, wrong at best, and detrimental to the effectiveness of the catalog at worst. Example: The lack of accessibility through normal channels does cause problems to librarians which can in the worst of circumstances make it seem as if the report is, indeed, unpublished. Example: At its very worst writing for a market can be pure 'hack' writing for money only, but in the world of books such an over-simplification can be misleading. Example: The worst case scenario suggests that library and information services may be replaced by electronic information points analogous to the electronic cash points installed at banks. Example: This is 'scientific journalism' at its worst, but its standards are not wholly different from those of the mainline press. Example: Theoretical results demonstrate that planning is in the worst case intractable. Example: If the worst comes to the worst and you are attacked, try to escape rather than fight back, especially if you believe that your assailant may be armed. Example: If worse comes to worst, you can always see if your employer may be amenable this time to giving you a cash advance.» en el primer caso = in the former case .
Example: In the former case, the layout of the text is adjusted to leave room for the graphics.» en el segundo caso = in the latter case .

Example: Most often a classroom or other existing space is converted into a library, with all the limitations that implies. Example: The classification number stands on its own to the upper left of the card and this will probably be acceptable in most cases. Example: In the majority of cases, attitudinal distinctions were associated with failures of communication. Example: Mostly such new schemes will not be general schemes. Example: Under most circumstances disasters happen quickly and without much notice. Example: Bleeding as a result of a minor head wound can also be treated at home in most situations. Example: In most instances, the next of kin is responsible for arranging the funeral of the deceased, for example: spouse, child, parent, legal partner or sibling.» en los casos en que = where .
Example: An appreciation of alternative approaches is particularly important in this field where trends towards standardisation are the norm.» en muchos casos = in many instances .

Example: The irate patron stance is characterised by very erect posture, an angry facial expression, sustained eye contact, dilated pupils, emphatic head nods, and in rare cases, clenched fists.» enseñanza a través del estudio de casos = case-teaching .
Example: As another case-teaching veteran, Andrew R. Towl, advises, they should remember that 'the ordering of cases is a pedagogical sequence, not necessarily the same as the logical exposition of the subject'.» en todo caso = if anything .
Example: If anything, it interposes an additional link in the communication chain, with its attendant 'interface' problems.» en todos los casos = under all circumstances .
Example: Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances.» en (un) caso de apuro = in a bind ; in a pinch ; in a predicament ; at a push ; at a pinch ; in a (tight) spot ; in a (tight) corner .
Example: With Wade in traction and Merle having just had her baby three days ago, we're really in a bind. Example: These can be good in a pinch, but with the smallest amount of preparation, you can make your own tea infusions for a fraction of that price. Example: Perhaps the unsettling that is experienced in a predicament is because these situations create an opening for messy emotional responses that draw on feelings. Example: A 6 foot round table will fit 10 people comfortably or 12 at a push. Example: They produce anything between 9 to 10 millions barrel per day and at a pinch could throw a couple millions more on the market. Example: She is of the view that the Russian president is definitely in a tight spot -- Russia is overstretching itself with expensive military ventures and incresingly isolating itself.

Example: The same is not true, of course, of the humanities or social sciences, where the method is less likely to be successful.» estudio de caso = case study [Enseñanza o aprendizaje de un tema a través del estudio de casos prácticos o reales] .
Example: It is now time to turn to a case study, and this section is devoted to one indexing system in rather more depth.» excepto en el caso de que = except when .
Example: There is therefore no justification for repeating the author's name except when the name in the heading differs significantly from that following the title.» gestión de casos clínicos = case management .
Example: They then assessed the quality of information received, its contribution to patient care, and its impact on case management.» gramática de casos = case grammar .
Example: Some methods used for analyzing text are subjective, but many are based on linguistics, especially case grammar.» hacer caso = take + notice ; listen (to) ; love + Nombre + back ; give + Nombre + attention .
Example: Successful displays depend on two main ingredients: selection from the vast number of possible titles; and attractive layout, so that people will take notice of the books and want to know more about them. Example: Only through listening to words in print being spoken does anyone discover their color, their life, their movement and drama. Example: He's crazy about someone who doesn't love him back. Example: The only way chippies like her will stop acting so cheap is if men stop giving them attention.» hacer caso a Alguien = take + Posesivo + word for it .
Example: We're also expected to take their word for it, because they're professionals, despite no real evidence.» hacer caso (a/de) = pay + attention to .

Example: This paper discusses ways in which library staff become demotivated, including rigid hierarchies, ignoring staff, brushing aside suggestions, and claiming credit for their ideas. Example: Despite all the evidence of bibliographic progress in the country during the 19th century, the expressed call for a form of national bibliographical control went unheeded. Example: I realize that our pleas are no doubt continuing to fall on deaf ears at Thomson. Example: The same argument on the part of librarians met deaf ears. Example: America is criminalizing those who object to its military plans, and is thumbing its nose at the Geneva Convention. Example: International 'rules' are often dismissed with the wave of the hand or a snort of contempt one week, and gilded and placed on a pedestal the next. Example: If a planned activity flies in the face of human nature, its success will be only as great as the non-human factors can ensure. Example: The advocacy of title entry for serials generally implies an ideology which is oblivious of the aims our catalog was designed to serve.

Example: The same is not true, of course, of the humanities or social sciences, where the method is less likely to be successful.» no hacer caso = brush aside .
Example: This paper discusses ways in which library staff become demotivated, including rigid hierarchies, ignoring staff, brushing aside suggestions, and claiming credit for their ideas.» no hacer caso a = turn + Posesivo + back (up)on .
Example: We can choose to turn our backs on these principles with fatuous arguments which posit their anachronism and the nonexistent intelligence of computing machinery.» no hacer caso de = slight .
Example: Students who slight preclass preparation are a drag on the class; they will not know what is going on and if they speak at all will frequently attempt to wrest the discussion away from the case to more comfortable topics.» normativa en caso de incendio = fire regulations .
Example: Such things as the minimum room temperature within one hour of starting work, the adequacy of light and ventilation, toilet provision, fire regulations and exits are all well covered in considerable detail.» no ser necesariamente el caso = be not necessarily the case .
Example: Many of us assume that more relaxed people live longer, but it's not necessarily the case.» no ser siempre el caso = be not always the case .
Example: Typically we think that water will work to put out a fire, but that is not always the case.» no venir al caso = be immaterial ; be beside the point ; be beside the mark ; be beside the question ; be off-topic ; be neither here nor there .
Example: To point out that this question was answered a great many years ago is, as the lawyers say, 'incompetent, irrelevant, and immaterial'. Example: The fact that she chose to dissolve the dance troupe she founded in 1965 is now beside the point. Example: In this case many of my objections would appear to be beside the mark.
