be neither one thing nor the other

0.04 sec.

if you say that something is neither one thing nor the other, you think it is bad because it is a mixture of two different things that do not combine well together. I prefer a book to be either fact or fiction - this one's neither one thing nor the other.

See also: neither, nor, other, thing
