Note! These phrase(s) in Russian are slang, NOT VULGAR idioms, but used only in spoken language / private conversations and coincide in meaning with expressions in English and are used in similar cases. For example, these phrase(s) replace slang idioms 'I don’t care', 'I`m easy', 'It doesn’t matter', 'I don’t give a damn', 'I don’t give a shit'. The meaning of the phrases is: It doesn`t worry me / It doesn`t bother me.
The basic phrase is
'MNE POFIG' or 'MNE POFIGU'
мне пофиг / мне пофигу
- We will be late? - I`m easy!
MY APAZDAYEM ? MNE POFIG!
- Мы опоздаем? - Мне пофиг!
Sometimes used in combination with other words that emphasize and enhance the emotional component of the phrase. For example:
DA MNE VAAPSHE FSYO POFIGU
ДА МНЕ ВООБЩЕ ВСЁ ПОФИГУ
In this case, the word 'DA' translates as 'WELL' and combination of words 'VAAPSHE FSYO' as 'ABSOLUTELY ALL'
