#someterse a

This is a verb I feel most learners of Spanish either don’t use or don’t know. Some of its definitions include:

deal with

live with

accept

abide by

It’s important to note that the deal with and live with definitions are not synonyms of (tratarse de) and (vivir con) but rather it implies the submitting to something (someterse a).

Por ejemplo:

Los senadores se atuvieron a las consecuencias al romper la ley - The senators dealt with the consequences of breaking the law

Los niños malcriados se atendrán al castigo de su padres porque no les hicieron caso. - The bad-mannered children will live with punishment of their parents because they didn’t listen to them.
