Welcome to English in a Minute!
We use bags to hold just about everything. So, what might we put in a “mixed bag”? Let’s find out.
A Mixed Bag
J: Hey, how was the party at Bernie’s last weekend?
A: Well, it was a mixed bag.
J: What do you mean?
A: The people were interesting, but the food was awful. The music was great, but it was way too loud.
J: That does sound like a mixed bag.
A “mixed bag” has a few meanings. It can mean a situation has a variety of things...some good, and some bad. It can also describe a range of different people or things.
And that’s English in a Minute.
