Question

What is mean by not quite a fish and yet not quite the same as you and me?

Answer 1

Explanation:

I've heard that in some Asian languages, the phrase "Not quite yet" can be said in a single word. It's a way of saying that you could do or learn to do something if you wanted to.

If someone asked you if you can play the guitar and you can't, instead of saying "no" you would say "not quite yet", indicating that you could learn if you wanted to. It's a way of looking at things with a positive attitude.
