big deal 既可以表示”大事“，也可以表示”没什么大不了的事“，它是一个习惯用语，经常用于否定句中，人们经常用“It's not a big deal”或"It's no big deal“，寓意：
important thing
重要的事
major concern
主要问题
serious issue
严重问题

用来表示某件事没有什么结果或不太重要
something you say to show that you do not think that something is either important or interesting (no big deal - negative usage)
你所说的表明你认为某件事不重要或无趣（没什么大不了的-消极用法）
例如：
Winning a scholarship is no big deal for him.
获得奖学金对他来说没什么大不了的。
解析：动名词短语 winning a scholarship 在句中作主语；no 相当于 not a.
I have been selected as a software engineer in Microsoft. It's a big deal for me and my family.
我入选微软的软件工程师。这对我和我的家人都是件大事。
Even though I was very upset about losing the race no one else thought it was a big deal.
尽管我对输掉比赛感到很不安，但没有人认为这是一件大事。
解析：even though 引导的让步状语从句，从句的内容往往是真实的，而 even if 引导的让步状语从句的内容往往是假设的，例如：
Even if the weather's awful there's lots to do.
即使天气很差，也还有好多事情可做。
Losing at cards is not a big deal, but some people take it very seriously.
打牌输了不是什么大不了的事，但有些人很认真。
当表示”没什么了不起的“时，常常独立成句，例如：
'You'll miss The Brady Bunch.' —'Big deal. '
“你会错过《布雷迪一家》的。”——“那有什么了不起。”
"I ran five miles this morning." "Big deal! I ran ten."
“我今天早上跑了五英里。”“有什么了不起的！我跑了10英里。”
