英语中怎么表达“不介意”、“某事无关紧要”呢？来看以下几个表达方式。

1. I don't care. 我不介意。

例：

I don't care what others think about me. （我不介意别人怎么看我。）

I don't care what my parents say; I am going to the party.（不管我爸妈说什么，我就是要去这个派对。）

''What do you think I should do?''  ''I don't care. Do what you want.''

（-你觉得我该怎么办？ -我无所谓啊，你爱怎么办就怎么办！）

She doesn't care about anything except money.（她只看重钱。）

注意：I don't care.与I don't mind.其实是有区别的，看个例子。

情境：我想借朋友家的电话，打到自己家电话答录机上查查留言。请注意，朋友怎么回答。

''Do you mind if check my messages?''

''No, go ahead.''（不介意，用吧。）

从上可以看出，I don't care的语气比较冷淡，有“我不在乎”或“关我什么事！”的感觉，而I don't mind态度比较客气。

2. be okay about something 不介意，能接受

例：美剧《老友记》S02E07:

情境：Rachel一直暗恋着Ross，结果Ross去中国出了一趟差，就交了个女朋友回来。现在Ross和新女友在咖啡厅外接吻，Rachel和其他几个朋友在咖啡厅里说这件事。

Rachel: Well, you know, as much fun as that was, I've decided to opt for sanity.（我选择理智放弃，不要纠缠了。） Chandler: So you're really OK about all this? （你真的能放下吗？） Rachel: Oh yeah, come on, I'm moving on. （当然，我放下了！）

3. for all I care: say this when you do not care at all what someone does or what happens to them, especially when you are annoyed with them 表示“说话人心里有气，（不管别人做什么，不管别人发生什么事）都不关说话人的事”

例1：

《老友记》S02E07:

情境：紧接着2中的对话。

Rachel: Oh yeah, come on, I'm moving on. He can press her up against that window as much as he wants. For all I care, he can throw her through the damn thing.（我放下了。他爱怎么把她靠在窗户上接吻就怎么靠吧。他把她从窗户里扔出去都不关我的事！） 例2：

''David’s moving to Boston.''  ''He can move to Timbuktu, for all I care.''

（-戴维要搬到波士顿去了。  -他搬到非洲去，都不关我的事！）

备注：Timbuktu廷巴克图，在非洲，是西非马里共和国的一个城市。

例3：

I don't want to hear any more about her. She can drop dead for all I care.（我再也不想听她的事了，她去死我都不介意。）

总结：从以上几个例子中，可以看出for all I care一般用在有点夸张的语境下。

4. whatever: used as a reply to tell someone that something does not matter, or that you do not care or are not interested when they ask or tell you something对别人的问话或提议无所谓、不关心、没兴趣

例：

''Do you want sausage or pepperoni on your pizza?''  ''Whatever.''

（-您的披萨是要加腊肠还是意大利香肠？ -随便啦。）

''It was Monday, not Tuesday.''   ''Whatever.''

（-那天是周一，不是周二！  -随便啦。）
