Dear StiddemDavid:

Mwen pa fe expre. That would be one translation for "I'm sorry, I didn't
mean to do....whatever."

"Se pa fot mwen" means "it is not my fault", "I am not to be blamed for
that".

Rather than brushing off guilt, it is a verbal mechanism for denying or
taking responsibility for something.
