Also means

without distinction

Usage Note

Indistintamente means without making any distinction — applying equally to all, or in a blurred, undifferentiated way: trattare tutti indistintamente (to treat everyone without distinction). It derives from indistinto (indistinct/undifferentiated). It should not be confused with indiscriminatamente, though the two overlap in many contexts.

Examples

"La legge si applica indistintamente a tutti i cittadini."
