(That’s not fair/that’s cheating!) fuori dal nulla (out of the blue) buono a nulla (good for nothing) Other common phrases that rely on the negatives are listed in below: NEGATIVE PHRASES da niente not important mai never nessuno no one, nobody niente (nulla) nothing né...né neither...nor nessun no, not...any neanche, nemmeno, neppure not even per niente at all Note that nessun is used as an adjective, and must agree in gender and number with the thing that it describes. Moreover, nessun and niente usually follow the verb when they act as the object. When one of these words is the subject of the sentence, its position can vary: Nessuno parla. (No one speaks.) Neinte ci piace. (We like nothing at all.) Non parla nessuno. (No one speaks.)
