Question

Use of neither.
Hey everybody!

I need your help real quick with something. I am writing a text and I just would like to know if there's something wrong with this " We aren't that big, neither that small " 
I am not sure if it's okay using aren't and neither like I did.

Thanks in advance!

Answer

We would use "nor" in this case and not "neither": "We aren't that big, nor are we that small."  To use "neither", it would be: "We are neither that big nor that small."

Answer

I think a more natural way to say it would be "We aren't that big, but we're not that small either."
