How it's actually used

The definitive French shrug, usually with the actual shoulder shrug and pursed lips. It answers "how was the film?" or "do you want to go out?" with total non-commitment.

Examples

Now actually use it out loud

Reading a definition isn't the same as saying it to someone. Lingo Kaiava is a voice tutor set to French — it uses bof the way locals do, corrects you in the moment, and never "fixes" the way real people actually talk into textbook French.
