全然分かりません。How 全然 is used
全然is an adverb that traditionally requires a negative ending to mean not at all. However, in modern casual Japanese, it is frequently used with positive adjectives to mean totally or completely (e.g., 全然大丈夫- totally fine). This positive usage was once considered grammatically incorrect but is now widespread.
