🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Egyptians often use the slang 'Kollo mahassel ba'do' (It all reaches the same point) to express this idea, often with a humorous or resigned tone. In the Levant, 'Ma biyifri' (It doesn't differ/matter) is the go-to casual version. It's used constantly in social negotiations. Gulf speakers might use 'Nafs al-tariqa' (The same way) or 'Ma fi farq' to emphasize that two options are identical in value. In the Maghreb, you might hear 'Kif kif' (Like like), which is a famous way to say 'it's the same.'

🎯

Use it to be Diplomatic

⚠️

Watch the Gender

Yes, but it can be slightly rude. Saying 'They don't differ much' about two people implies they are both equally unremarkable.

No, you can say 'La yakhtalifu al-amru' (The matter doesn't differ), but adding 'kathiran' makes it sound more natural and less absolute.

The opposite would be 'هناك فرق شاسع' (There is a vast difference).

The specific phrase is modern, but the verb 'ikhtalafa' and the word 'amr' are used frequently in the Quran.

Absolutely. It is very professional for comparing two proposals or strategies.
