Why do people say
"Never mind"
?
Because the definition of
never is;
1.
not ever; at no
time: Such
an idea
never occurred to me.
2. not
at
all; absolutely
not: never
mind; This
will never
do.
3. to no extent
or
degree: He was never
the wiser for his
experience.
And the definition of
mind is;
1.
to pay
attention to.
2. to heed
or obey
(a person,
advice, instructions, etc.).
3. to apply oneself or attend
to: to
mind one's
own business.
4.to look after;
take
care
of;
tend:
to mind
the baby.
So basically, that person is saying
"Don't ever at, no time, pay
attention to (whatever they were talking
about)"
Makes
sense, right?
But then, the person ends up telling them...
