Answer 1

I'm trying to find out how to say never mind in spanish. I'm not sure if you say da igual or not

If you look at the link for igual that I wrote above you will see (towards the bottom)

¡Es igual!=never mind

I have written this in the other thread on "never mind" also.

Answer 2

Yes, "no importa works", but "no me importa" might be a bit more grammatically correct.

They are both correct, but they don't mean the same. It is like "It doesn't matter" and "It doesn't matter to me".

Answer 3

if you say "da igual" (me da igual) it usually means "same here" or "I think likewise" "No importa" refers more to "it doesn't matter to me" or "I don't care."

I am from Colombia and we use this expression a lot there. Let us say for example: Ricardo, que quieres comer, hamburguesa o hot dog. Me da igual. (Ricardo what do you want to eat, hamburguer or hot dog. It doesn't matter. - RicardoP, AGO 12, 2009
