Hello!
I'd like to ask if 'to be blasé' has a positive meaning or negative.
- We were all incredibly excited and nervous about appearing on TV but Chris, who had been on television before, was quite blasé about it.
Thanks.
Blasé is not an English word. It's French.
n.a.t.
PS: However, my dictionary tells me that it has the same meaning as in French: he was bored, unconcerned.
Apparently one of the emotions the English don't have a better word than a French one to use for.

This word just has French origin, but you can find it in English dictionary.
As far as I know the English language doesn't have accents as in blasé.
Usually when they import words they x-out all the umlauts and accents :)
Yes I know, I found it in an English dictionary, too.
