معنی
Dismissing something as insignificant.
زمینه فرهنگی
Hungarians often use 'Nem fontos' as a form of modesty. If you praise someone's help, they might say 'Nem fontos' or 'Szóra sem érdemes' to downplay their effort. In many Central European cultures, including Hungary, there is a distinction between 'important' (objective) and 'mattering' (subjective). 'Nem fontos' covers both, but is softer than the German 'Egal'. In a Hungarian office, saying 'Nem fontos' about a task can be a sign of poor prioritization unless you are the boss. It is better to say 'Nem sürgős' (Not urgent). On Hungarian Facebook or Instagram, 'Nem fontos' is often used in captions to show a relaxed, 'living in the moment' attitude.
The 'Sh' Sound
Remember that 's' in Hungarian is always 'sh'. So it's 'fontosh', not 'fontos'.
Don't be too cold
If someone is telling you a secret, don't say 'Nem fontos' unless you want to end the friendship!
