뜻
To indicate that something is not significant.
문화적 배경
Brazilians often use 'Não importa' accompanied by the word 'bobagem' (nonsense/silly thing) to really emphasize that you shouldn't worry. In Portugal, you will hear 'Não faz mal' much more frequently than 'Não importa' in response to an apology. In Luanda, the phrase is used similarly to Brazil, often with a very relaxed tone to signal 'no worries' in social gatherings.
The Shrug Factor
In Brazil, a small shoulder shrug makes this phrase sound much more natural.
Tone Matters
Saying it too fast or sharply can sound dismissive or rude. Keep your tone soft.
