TODAY'S IDIOM: NEITHER HERE NOR THERE

"NEITHER HERE NOR THERE"



You can say something is neither here nor there if it's not important, or not relevant.

Example: Whether we like a band or not is neither here nor there. The only thing that matters is whether we can sell enough tickets to their concert.

No viene al caso.

Example sentences:

  • Her popularity among the other teachers is neither here nor there. What's important is her ability to teach her students / Su popularidad entre los demás profesores no tiene importancia. Lo importante es su capacidad de enseñar a sus alumnos.


  • Our boss says a person's private life is neither here nor there if they do a good job / Nuestro jefe dice que la vida privada de una persona no tiene importancia si hacen un buen trabajo.

Additional examples:


  • Whether you go to the movie or stay at home is neither here nor there.


  • Your comment though interesting is neither here nor there.


  • Whether they go or not is neither here nor there as far as I'm concerned.
