Sorry to inform you, good sir, but “I didn’t notice” is not always the correct translation for حواسم نبود. It only works in certain situations.
For example, saying, “I didn’t notice you weren’t home,” sounds as if you were in the house for hours but simply failed to look around and realize they were gone.
Use “I didn’t notice” for things you could physically see or hear:
• “I didn’t notice the traffic light had changed.”
• “I didn’t notice the noise coming from upstairs.”
But when you mean you forgot or were unaware of some information, “I forgot” or “I didn’t realize” is usually more natural:
• “I forgot you were at work.”
• “I didn’t realize you had already left.”
The meaning of حواسم نبود depends heavily on the context; it is not always a direct match for “I didn’t notice.”
