Question

What's the definition of indifference?

Answer 1

Answer:

Indifference means the lack of any interest in someone or something, a feeling of no concern for anything.

Explanation:

Cambridge English Dictionary defines "indifference" as the lack of interest in someone or something. Indifference then can mean any form of disinterest in anything, having no care for anything or anyone.

Indifference can happen when someone is just not interested in it. There is no hatred or love, just indifference. It neither goes for or against anything, but rather stays in between.

Eg, The indifference of the minister to the suffering of the poor people led to his loss in the elections.

Here, the minister's action of neither caring for nor paying any attention to the people made him lose out in the election.

Answer 2

Indifference: having a lack of interest/concern, feeling that some matters may be unimportant.

Example:

The indifference he felt towards his schoolwork caused him to get a low grade.
