À propos de のなんのって

のなんのって is a casual phrase that is used in spoken Japanese to indicate that the word before it is 'excessively (A)', or 'extremely (A)'. This structure consists of the case marking particle の, the pre-noun adjectival 何(なん)の 'what kind of', and って, an abbreviation of という 'to say'.

The literal meaning of 'and to say it's (A) or something' just indicates that something is so (A) that if it is not that then the speaker doesn't know what to call it.

This structure will be seen after い-Adjectives, な-Adjectives followed by な, and verbs.

のなんのって itself is a more condensed variation of ～の～ないのって, which has the same meaning, but has (A) appear in both the positive and negative for 'to say it's (A) or not (A), (B)', where (B) will usually be a phrase explaining the extent of (A). Occasionally (B) will be left unsaid, as ～の～ないのって itself is always used to mean 'extremely (A)'.

        Can anyone help break down the Japanese here? I understand this is a phrase, but I’m having trouble figuring out what the distinct “words” are.

        The って seems obvious: I’m guessing that’s the casual quote particle. The first の also seems to be nominalizing? So then, なん is なに and the の after it is emphatic/interrogative?

        I could really use some help.

        I was just wondering this too!

        I found this answer on Stack Exchange: meaning - Why does ～なんてもんじゃない / ～のなんのって mean とても？ - Japanese Language Stack Exchange

        Aw, man, I always forget about the Japanese Stack Exchange. Thanks for the reference.

        After reading the top answer there, I can’t believe that I actually parsed the syntax correctly. Even so, I couldn’t possibly have derived the right meaning from that alone.

        That explanation from Stack Exchange helped quite a bit.
