뜻
Used to strongly deny something or politely disagree.
문화적 배경
In France, 'Pas du tout' is often accompanied by a small hand gesture—a slight wave of the hand as if brushing away a fly—to emphasize the 'zero' aspect. The word 'Pantoute' is a cultural icon in Quebec. Using it as a foreigner will usually earn you a big smile and immediate 'street cred'. Belgians use 'Pas du tout' similarly to the French, but they might follow it with 'S'il vous plaît' in some regional dialects to mean 'You're welcome', though this is rare. Swiss French speakers are known for being very polite; 'Pas du tout' is a staple of their consultative register in shops and banks.
Use it for Reassurance
If someone apologizes to you, 'Pas du tout' sounds much warmer and more native than just 'C'est okay'.
The 'De' Rule
Remember that 'Pas du tout' + Noun always uses 'de'. Never 'du', 'de la', or 'des'.
