låtsas att problemen inte existerar


Explanation:
Du får nog skriva om det lite grann. I det här sammanhanget betyder det att man låtsas att problem inte existerar om man inte behöver se dem.

Example sentence(s):
  • Genom att bygga anläggningarna i städernas utkanter behöver man inte se dem och kan låtas om att problemen inte existerar.
