Thread: Да мало ли в чем

How does this translate to English?

Да мало ли в чем

thanks

It is really unknown (what was/is/will be the reason).

It's one of the variants. Providing us with wider context will clarify the issue.

Да мало ли в чём как в, например, "Да мало ли в чём он был замешан." ? - It could be a lot of different illigal activities he could be involved in.

It would be something like:

"It doesn't matter..." (but it cannot be properly completed without a context).

I'd translate Lampada's example ("Да мало ли в чём он был замешан.") as:

"It doesn't matter what he was involved in"

I wonder would just "no matter" be enough?

Да, я согласна, потому что данный оборот указывает на присутствие некоторого недовольства у говорящего.

Moreover, Mr Ожегов also agrees with me
