Origin

The phrase 滿不在乎 is composed of four characters. The character 滿 means full, filled, or packed. It is formed with the semantic component 水 (water) and the phonetic component 㒼 (equal; equivalent). The character 不 means not, un-, or in-.

The character 在 means to exist, to be present, or to be alive. Its phonetic components include 才 (ability; gift; talent; capability) and 士 (unmarried male; bachelor). The final character 乎 means in, at, or on. It uses the phonetic component 丂 (the appearance of air which is to be released), which is composed of 𠃑 and 一 (one).
