sweet FA
Not a thing
Sweet FA is British slang for nothing at all, absolutely zero.
The FA officially stands for "Fanny Adams," a murder victim whose name became naval slang for tinned mutton, then for anything worthless.
In practice, most speakers understand it as a euphemism for "sweet fuck all": I've done sweet FA today.
The phrase emphasizes complete absence or lack of effort.
