Colombian Funny Proverb

In Colombia, there's a proverb that says 'Every pig has its December', which means that sooner or later everybody faces the consequences of their actions. This saying comes from the Colombian custom of killing a pig in December for celebrations, and it's used humorously to say that even if someone seems to get away with it, their time will come.


En Colombia existe el dicho “A cada marrano le llega su diciembre” significa que tarde o temprano todos enfrentan las consecuencias de sus actos. Proviene de la costumbre colombiana de matar el cerdo en diciembre para las celebraciones, así que se usa con humor para decir que, aunque alguien parezca salirse con la suya, su momento llegará.

This saying comes from the Colombian custom of killing a pig in December for celebrations, and it's used humorously to say that even if someone seems to get away with itsomething, their time will come.

The word “it” is used when the thing you are referring to has already been established/explained. Since you haven’t explained exactly what that is, you should use a word like “something” instead
