Can You Tell Me The Meaning Of This?

What does 'Gar nichts (zwinken)' mean?

Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    'Gar nicht zwinkern' means 'don't blink at all.' 'Gar nichts (zwinkern)' means 'Nothing at all (blink or wink.)' I would guess it is a kind of jokey message, eg in an email? Hope this helps.

      Gar nichts means "it's nothing/that's nothing".  Sounds likely someone tacked on "winken" at the end of a post (in a forum maybe), which can mean a "wave" or a "wink" at the end of the post.

        It means exactly the opposite-- 'gar nichts' really translates in English as "no big deal"-- or" it means nothing"
