Meaning & Usage
01
"to shit, to give a shit"
The vulgar verb 'to shit' — but in Italian it's equally important in negative constructions. 'Non cagare qualcuno' means to completely ignore someone — to not give them even the dignity of a shit. 'Me ne cago' means 'I don't give a shit.' The verb does as much metaphorical work as literal.
Examples in the Wild
'Non mi caga neanche' — he doesn't even acknowledge my existence. 'Me ne cago!' — I don't give a shit! 'Mi sono cagato addosso' — I shit myself (fear or literally).
