desde hace mucho tiempo

for a long time

* * *

= for ages, long-time [longtime], far back in time, for a long time, long since, in ages (and ages and ages)

Ex. We'll be able to purchase equipment we've been wanting for ages: an electronic offset printer; collators and folding machines and other graphic production-related paraphernalia.

Ex. The late James Bennet Childs, one-time head of Descriptive Cataloging at LC and long-time documents specialist, has often pointed out how the quality of documents cataloging went downhill after the special cataloging unit was abolished.

Ex. Heavy metals can be traced far back in time in these shipping canals and are mainly responsible for the existing contamination.

Ex. I have been reading his post for a long time and I have been biting my fingers to keep from basting him.

Ex. Some of these sites were once large private estates long since transformed in to public parks and wildlife preserves = Algunos de estos lugares fueron grandes propiedades privadas que desde hace tiempo pasaron a ser parques públicos y reservas naturales.

Ex. I don't have a set of bathroom scales in my flat and so I haven't had a chance to weigh myself in ages and ages.
