Furigana

Formação

Explicação

It means the difference does not matter; everything is treated the same. It follows nouns that contain differences, such as age, gender, nationality, experience, day or night and season, or paired words like 男女 or 国内外. It is formal and common in job ads and notices. At the end of a sentence, say 経験は問いません.
