For the record, I do love pizza. Here are some examples using the phrase ‘not half’.

Examples

A: That party was awesome!

B: Not half, mate. The music was incredible.

A: ‘Not half’ is a useful phrase, huh?

B: Not half.

Ahh, that was a funny example. Now, before we go – let’s teach a variation of this phrase.

Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil

In this version, we have ‘not half’ followed by an adjective. For example: I just got back from Singapore. It’s not half expensive.

我们还可以在 not half 后加形容词。比如，“It’s not half expensive”的意思就是“It’s very expensive”。“Not half expensive”的意思是“非常贵”，就好比我们汉语里常说的“不是一点儿贵，是非常贵”。Your new haircut is not half nice, Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil!

Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil

You would be saying my haircut is very nice. Was that just another example?

Oh, no, I meant it.

Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil">Neil

Too kind.
