- いA(〜く) + ても + かまわない
- なA + でも + かまわない
- N + でも + かまわない
- Vない形(〜なく) + ても + かまわない
Explicação
てもかまわない means it's no problem if ~. It is used to give or ask for permission, much like てもいい but a little more formal. なくてもかまわない means you don't have to. It can also show that the speaker accepts something: I don't mind if it's small.
