One Form for Everyone

This word ends in -e, which means it doesn't change for gender. You can use it for a man, a woman, or a neutral object without changing the ending.

Using 'Me es'

When you want to say something doesn't matter to you, use the structure 'Me es indiferente' (To me it is indifferent). This is more polite than the casual 'Me da igual'.

The 'Indiferento' Error

Mistake:Él es indiferento.

Correction: Él es indiferente. Even though 'él' is masculine, adjectives ending in -e don't change to -o.

Missing the 'to me'

Mistake:Soy indiferente.

Correction: Me es indiferente. While 'Soy indiferente' means 'I am an indifferent person,' 'Me es indiferente' is the correct way to say 'I don't care about this specific choice.'
