Meaning
Expressing indifference between two or more options.
Cultural Background
In the Levant, people often use 'ما بتفرق' instead of 'الأمر سيان'. Egyptians prefer 'مش فارقة' for this meaning. In formal Gulf Arabic, 'الأمر سيان' is very well-received in business. They often use 'كيف كيف' (kif kif) to mean the same thing.
Use with 'بالنسبة لي'
Adding 'بالنسبة لي' makes the phrase sound much more natural and polite.
