How do you translate this Spanish idiom?
¿Qué significa 'es o si que es'?Lo siento! I spelt it incorrectly! I meant 'eso si que es', such as: 'eso si que es feo'

it means something like "it's too... [an adjective]". Related to your example, "eso sí que es feo" would be "it is too ugly" or "that's really ugly". I don't know if I wrote something wrong in English, I'm native spanish speaker.
Best,
Regards.

"Eso sí que es (feo)" is used to emphasize or to acknowledge a general truth or fact, it would be like saying: That really, truly IS ugly. Or That IS indeed ugly...
Another fun sentence is: "Eso que ni qué", which simply means "no doubt about it".

!Eso sí que es! - Yes, that's it!
There's a Spanish/English joke about it because it can sound like you are spelling the English word 'socks' ' http://www.brycehedstrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/ESO-SI-QUE-ES-Joke-Story1.pdf
