1. neither ... nor . .. , NOT neither ... or ...
Compare: 'either ... or ... '
2. not/never/rarely etc. are NOT used after neHher OR neither ... nor ... 3. Neither should be placed immediately before the first of the connected items and nor immediately before the second. Compare: ' I 've seen neither Anne nor Tina.' 'I 've neither seen Anne nor written to her.' 4. neither + singular noun form: 'Neither camera is suitable.' neither of + plural noun form: 'Neither of the cameras is suitable.' 5. When neither is used with a singular noun it is followed by a singular verb. Note that in informed Engl ish neither of ••• and neHher ••• nor are often followed by a plural verb, although this would be considered incorrect in formal writing: ' Neither Paul nor John is/are coming.' |
