How to Say โ€˜Shaded would be better.โ€™ in Mexican Spanish

Mejor con sombra.

meh-HOR kohn SOM-brah

[meh-HOR kohn SOM-brah]

๐Ÿ’ฌ Usage Tip: [Mejor] often works like "better" on its own to soften a preference: [Mejor con sombra], [mejor adentro], [mejor cerca de la ventana]. In real requests, Spanish often leaves out extra words like "it would be" when the meaning is obvious.
