The first time I see a translation of these two very common phrases we use in catalan and spanish...

But I had never read it before. Thanks!

Jajaja
Tienes suerte que no estés cerca. Si no, te haría el regalo "maldito" en la fiesta de inauguración de vuestra casa: el electrodoméstico más inútil

I'm embarrassed to say, I've never heard this phrase in English!

Scots: "the noo"
(although I think that might mean "right now," on reflection.

Thanks to the German and Spanish, I can at least contribute some other translations.

JAPANESE: 当面は, toumen wa, "At the present, for the meantime"; 差し当たって, sashiatatte, "for the present" (and not another time).
HEBREW: , לעת עתה, laet ata, "for the time being"; לעכשיו, laxshav, "for now" (and not, say, later).

Hmm, wonder what that would be in Portuguese. "pelo momento"?

I have also never heard that phrase in English.
