Pronunciation
/me.ne.fre.ˈɡiz.mo/
💡
Cultural Note
Derived from 'me ne frego' (I don't care), which was infamously used as a Fascist motto. The word 'menefreghismo' itself has outlived that association and is used broadly to describe apathy or indifference. A 'menefreghista' is someone who doesn't care about anything. The expression 'me ne frego' remains very common in daily speech.
