could care less
語源
An alteration of couldn’t care less (which is first attested slightly earlier), either:[1]
- by deliberate irony, or
- by hyponegation, perhaps influenced by forms such as “as if I could care less”, “no one could care less”, and “to know little (または nothing) and care less”.
発音
動詞
could care less (past perfect could have cared less)
- (US, nonstandard) To not care at all; to have no concern or interest; to be apathetic.

使用する際の注意点
- Some consider this expression erroneous because the literal meaning of this version is the opposite of the intended meaning.[2] Others consider it acceptable because it is widespread and because omission of -n't is an instance of Jespersen’s Cycle, a linguistic process attested elsewhere in English and in other languages.[3]
