hybrid

Two sources combined

A hybrid combines elements from different sources.

In biology, a hybrid is offspring from two different species or varieties: a mule is a hybrid of horse and donkey.

The term extends to anything of mixed origin: hybrid cars use both gasoline and electric power, hybrid work splits time between office and home.

The film is a hybrid of comedy and horror.
