Does this sentence make any sense to you?

Question

i could careless about your well being.

Answer 1

Yeah, that's a weird adult phrase, my mom used to say it all the time when I was growing up, and I'm 29. Except the real phrase is "I couldn't care less", meaning literally, I couldn't care any less than I already do because it is so unimportant to me.

I hope someone didn't say that to you!! But if so they are just hurt about something and trying to sound like they don't care.

Answer 2

Nope. Look at how it parses:
I [verb: am capable of ] [adjective: carefree] about your [adjective: satisfactory] [noun:.
Try this instead;
I couldn't care less about your well-being.
I [verb: am not capable of] [verb: [to] feel interest in] [adverb: to a reduced degree] about your [noun: physical or emotional state of being].
The main point of contention here would be the near-homographic "careless" vs "care less". In this phrase, the adjective former doesn't make sense, while the verb phrase latter does.
The second point I can see is the wording of the final "well being" vs. "well-being". The second is nearly universally accepted for the meaning I believe you intend. The first would be correct grammatically, but not necessarily idiomatically.
The argument over the correct wording for "could ..." vs. "couldn't care less" is an old one. The second is more in line with the intended meaning (i.e. that the sentence's object is of no importance to the subject); while the first is a grudgingly-accepted colloquialism.

Answer 3

It is possible that careless is just a mash of the words care less, if that is the case then the sentence is suggesting that the person cares about you a lot.

Answer 4

I COULD careless suggests the person is capable of caring more, and thus, "I could careless" means the person somewhat cares about the subject, even though the degree of care isn't fully established.

I COULDN'T careless would probably be a more suitable term, since it mean the person is incapable of caring more.

EXAMPLE:

I could buy less food - the ability to buy or not buy less food is available.

I couldn't buy less food - the ability to buy less food is unavailable.

Answer 5

The word careless should be read as 'care less'. Then the meaning is clear.

Answer 6

Yes, but it is missing a space between care and less.
In other words, the person is careless and wants to express
an incapability of caring about the well being of anyone, or
even him/her self. Notice the little i rather than a captial
I.

Answer 7

This sentence is having bad grammer and it literally means taking revenge upon somebody by threatening to be careless about his well-being especially when he is not well.
Hence,this is a senseless sentence.

Answer 8

if you seperate the care and the less , then yes it does make sense
but by being one word "careless' , then no it makes no sense at all

Answer 9

i agree with a previous answer, that "care less" makes sense but "careless" does not

Answer 10

yes, but careless should be 2 words.
