17 ровным счётом ничего
разг.nothing whatever; absolutely (exactly) nothing; nothing (not anything) at all- Вы давно уже не в силах объяснить природу тех явлений, с которыми сталкиваетесь, и без конца жонглируете символами, маскирующими вашу растерянность, - наседал Павел Алексеевич. - Вы прячетесь за какой-то научный воляпюк, ровным счётом ничего не говорящий людям. (Ю. Нагибин, Берендеев лес) — 'You scientists haven't been able to explain the nature of the phenomena you encounter for a long while, and you're endlessly juggling with symbols to disguise your confusion,' Pavel Alexeyevich insisted. 'You hide behind some scientific mumbo jumbo that means exactly nothing to people.'
Ничего этого сам я, конечно, не помню - ровным счётом ничего: ни землетрясения, ни своих родителей, ни своего чудесного спасения. Ведь мне в ту пору ещё и двух лет не исполнилось. (А. Рекемчук, Мальчики) — Of course I myself don't remember anything about the catastrophe, anything at all, neither the earthquake, nor my unfortunate parents, nor my miraculous escape. I was less than two at the time.
