A1 Expression カジュアル

No te preocupes

Don't worry

意味

Used to reassure someone that there is no need to be anxious.

🌍

文化的背景

In Spain, 'No te preocupes' is often followed by 'no pasa nada.' Spaniards tend to be very direct, and this phrase helps soften that directness in social interactions. Mexicans often use 'No te apures' as a synonym for 'No te preocupes.' It literally means 'don't hurry,' but it's used to mean 'don't worry' or 'don't stress.' In Argentina, the 'voseo' (using 'vos' instead of 'tú') changes the stress in many verbs, but for the negative imperative, they still use 'No te preocupes' (though some might say 'No te hagás drama'). In Caribbean dialects, the 's' at the end of 'preocupes' is often aspirated or dropped entirely in casual speech, sounding like 'No te preocupe'.

🎯

The 'Usted' Rule

When in doubt, use 'No se preocupe.' It's safer to be too formal than too informal with strangers.

💬

Pairing for Fluency

Native speakers almost always say 'No te preocupes, no pasa nada.' Using both together makes you sound much more natural.

Watch the 'S'

Don't say 'No te preocupas.' That 's' vs 'es' difference is the difference between a command and a statement.
