خلفية ثقافية
The phrase is often used to maintain 'den norske høfligheten' (Norwegian politeness), which is indirect. Instead of saying 'You are wrong', a Norwegian might say 'Det har kanskje med noe annet å gjøre' (It might be related to something else). In flat Norwegian hierarchies, being 'enkel å ha med å gjøre' is more valued than being a brilliant but 'vanskelig' genius. Cooperation is key. In Norwegian law, 'å ha med saken å gjøre' determines if evidence or a witness is relevant. It's a technical term for 'admissibility'. Norwegians value privacy highly. The phrase 'Det har ikke du noe med' is a very common way to stop personal questions without being overly aggressive.
The 'Ingenting' Trick
If you want to sound like a native when you're annoyed, use 'Det har ingenting med saken å gjøre!' to shut down irrelevant arguments.
Don't forget the 'Å'
English speakers often forget the 'å' before 'gjøre' because English doesn't use 'to' in 'to do with'. Always include it in Norwegian!
