what does j'en sais rien mean?
2007-03-03 12:36:05 · 12 answers · asked by Anonymous in Society & Culture ➔ Languages
A little explanation...
Je ne sais pas = I don't know.
Je ne sais rien = I don't know anything.
Je n'en sais rien = je ne sais rien de cela = I don't know anything of/about it.
J'en sais rien = same as je n'en sais rien but in a more colloquial form where the "ne" is dropped off.

It's probably "Je ne sais rien", and it's French for "I know nothing." If you're sure it's "J'en..." then that means "I know nothing about/of that" - but it's more likely just a typo.

Well, I would say it means: "I have no idea".
If someone asks you: "Who is going to be elected?", you say "J'en sais rien". It means "I don't know", but a bit stronger.

Don't know about "J'en sais rien" (I in know nothing?), but "Je ne sais rien" translates to "I know nothing".

well it should be je n'en sais rien, but it's improper french for "i don't know anything about that"
