Stop being nosy, it's none of your business!

不要三八,没你事!

Bú yào sān bā, méi nǐ shì!

Literally: "Don't want 3-8, doesn't have your business."

《三八》 literally means 'three-eight'. It is used to describe someone who is 'nosy', asking too many questions, a bit of a gossip maybe. But its only used for women, which is a bit contentious, because '3/8' (August 3rd) is also the Chinese 'Women's Day'! I'd suggest you don't go calling random women 3-8.

example:

“她亲吻得好吗?”

“不要三八,没你事!”
