معنی
To speak directly and frankly, without evasion or pretense.
زمینه فرهنگی
In France, directness is often seen as a sign of respect for the other person's intelligence and time. Quebecers are generally a bit more indirect than people from France, but this phrase is still widely understood and used. Belgians use this phrase exactly like the French, often in professional settings. Swiss French speakers use this phrase frequently in both business and personal life.
The 'y' is key
Don't forget the 'y' in 'n'y va pas'. It replaces the place/situation.
Don't drop the 'ne pas'
Without 'ne pas', the meaning flips to being indirect.
