Preliminarno-

Preliminarno predstavlja izraz (tj. gramatički tumačeno – pridev) koji je latinskog porekla, nastao od
latinske reči praeliminarius, što u prevodu znači – uvodni, prethodni. Generalno, ovaj izraz označava
nešto što je početno, što je “baš tako” u datom trenutku, ali nema za uslov da ostane tako, već može da
se desi, da pretrpi i određene promene. Etimologija same reči, detaljnije gledano, u svojoj osnovi ima –
“prag”, koji se metaforički koristi kao “početak”, kako u našem jeziku, tako i u većini drugih jezika.

Kada je u pitanju izraz – “preliminarni projekat”, on podrazumeva idejni projekat, koji tek treba da se
razvije, a usput i menja, s’ tim što će njegova osnova ostati nepromenjena. Na fakultetima se često mogu
sresti – “preliminarne rang liste”, i one se odnose na (još uvek) ne zaključene rang liste studenata, koji
su, na primer, položili ispit, upisali godinu, odnosno u žargonu rečeno – “da li ispod ili iznad crte”. Ove
rang liste prethodne konačnim rang listama, koje će ostati nepromenjive. Nailazi se i na termin –
“preliminarni dogovor”, koji u suštini označava – tzv. okvirni dogovor između osoba.
Često se u svakodnevnom životu, pre svega u politici, upotrebljava izraz – “preliminarni izbori”, koji
podrazumevaju izbore na kojima će se birati kandidati koji će se ispred određene političke stranke
takmičiti na redovnim izborima različitog ranga. Preliminarni izbori se nazivaju još i – predizbori i oni su
najkarakterističniji za Sjedinjene Američke Države, gde se prvi put pojavljuju početkom XX veka, kao deo
progresivnih nastojanja da se suzbije partitokracija, kao i korupcija u tadašnjem američkom političkom
sistemu. Čitava svrha pomenutog je bila da se omogući tzv. običnim, ne toliko poznatim i javnim
članovima stranke da spreče manipulacije stranačkih ličnosti sa samog vrha, već da se održava i poštuje
volja birača. Početkom XXI veka su se preliminarni izbori počeli koristiti i širiti i po evropskim zemljama,
od kojih se najkarakterističniji preliminarni izbori dešavaju na području Italije.

post festum (lat. post festum)

"posle svečanosti" ,tj. dockan, prekasno, posle boja kopljem u trnje.

"me ne frego" (italian)-to je rekao Musolini i znači "I don't care", ako je google translate tačan.

Evo tačnog prevoda dobijenog na forumu kao odgovor na pitanje:

What is the meaning of this phrase?

It's connected to the fans (Juve :cool: ).

In the site it says that FREGO is the 1st person indicative of "fregare",

and that it means "cheat" or "rub", but I don't find it apropriate.

10Q

Penso che la frase "Me ne frego" abbia il significato di "I don't give a care" o più forte "I don't give a
damn"

Hello and welcome! :)


Fregarsene, which is the infinitive form, means "not to give a damn", "not to care". I am not sure what
the Juve fans precisely mean (there is a fascist connotation of the expression! :eek: ), but I suggest that
you also visit these two threads: 1, 2.

Hope this helps.

Jana

Actually, if you say "me ne frega" it could also mean "I do care". But if you say "non me ne frega" or "me
ne frego" then it means "I don't care".

A couple of examples:

Di questa partita me ne frega eccome!

I do care about this match!

Non me ne frega niente se te ne vai.

I don't care at all if you leave.

Non ti piace? Me ne frego!

Don't you like it? I don't care!

Shalom,

Wikipedia page about Fascist_Italy says: Me ne frego, literally "I rub myself about it," closer, in meaning,
to "I don't give a damn": the Italian Fascist motto.

I found myself a reference about this expression in the book of Ignazio Silone, The School for Dictators,
1938, p. 8. I quote: "I learnt this expression in the chapel dedicated to the fascist martyrs in Milan. It was
sewn into the pennants of the 1919 squadristi".
