A: It can mean you don't know a particular piece of information.

A: "Do you know what time the bus arrives?"

B: "I have no clue."

Saying someone "is clueless" can mean you're implying they are stupid.

A: "I tried to ask him what he likes to do. His responses were thin but telling."

"Her feedback on my paper was thin but telling."

Thin but telling means something is small or plain but tells you a lot of information.

For example, If someone asked what I'm interested in and I said "marine biology". That's a very short (thin) answer but it tells you a lot about me. You can assume from that answer that if I like marine biology that I also like animals, the ocean, and science.

A: I have no clues would be improper grammar, and should not be used. "I have no clue" means to not know the answer to something, and would be the proper way to say this phrase.

A: They're essentially the same thing, just the wording being different

Some examples to use them would be:

"- Hey Joshua, do you know how to answer this question?"

"- No, I don't have a clue" or " I have no clue"

Both work for these situations, just different wording and maybe some are more used in different areas rather than the others

hope it helped

(PD: They both mean that you don't have any idea / don't know )

Proof, establishes facts of the truth and statement.

A: It means the same thing but it’s just preference to what you prefer to say

A: They can generally be used under the same circumstances, to a varying degree of intensity.

A: Your accent is quite good but your grammar/use of words may be something to focus on to improve

A: I think...

1. I haven't got any clue.

I'd say "I haven't got a clue." It's very natural and casual for everyday speech.

2. Come again? ( what did you say )

This is OK in casual speech between friends. It can also mean "I don't believe what you're telling me" if you say it with a strong question intonation.

3. I rather like to do things off the cuff.

"rather" makes this sentence sound a bit formal. If you leave "rather" out it's very natural.

A: Number 2. I haven't got a clue.

A: @tjstkdn 'For very little while' is what sounds a little bit unnatural. The meaning is the same but 'for a very short time' sounds better.

A: Put a A in front of clue so it says "I have not a clue" Also, change devote to devoted. You are talking about the past tense I believe, therefore devoted sounds better. :)

A: c. Much as I loved chips, my doctor says they're bad for me.
d. However much sums you offer them, they'd never agree....
e. No matter how often they ask me, I'm not....
