Normally you would hear it, What nerve. It means someone is very bold in a slightly negative way, especially in a social situation. For instance, speaking disrespectfully to the boss or the teacher, it takes nerve. Cutting in line/queue, other people might say, what nerve.

@Buster Could I say ''What a nerve of you to do such a thing to her'' or '' You have a lot of nerve to do such a thing to her'' ?
