how to use neither and nor
hi samana how are you? plz tell me first that what you have decided about your C.A? bcoz system is not showing the page where we happend to discuss. i have tried but i was not able to see the page.. it is quite confusing point that how to use neither and nor? according to my conviction we use this while talking about two different objects to compare their states.. i.e na he ali ny knana khaya na he umer ny. neither ali took meal nor umer. ya na he ma ny newspaper parhe na he ap ny. neither i read news paper nor you.. and secondaly you can use did if sentence requires..

Quote:
Neither Neither means 'not one nor the other of two'. It is followed by a singular noun and verb. Neither shirt looks good on you. Neither statement is true. Neither of Before a determiner (articles, possessives and distributives) or a personal pronoun, we use neither of. Neither of my parents lives with me. Neither of my sisters is married. I like neither of them. The pronoun that comes after neither of is plural in number. The verb is normally singular, but can be plural in an informal style. Neither and nor to mean 'also not' The adverbs neither and nor mean 'also not'. They can be used at the beginning of a clause after a negative idea. I don't like science fiction. Neither does my husband. (OR My husband does not either.) Alice didn't come, and nor did Mary. (OR Mary didn't either.) We have never been to Paris. Neither have I. (OR I haven't either.) She can't come today, and neither can her brother. (OR And her brother can't either) Note that here we use the inverted word order neither/nor + auxiliary verb + subject. Neither…nor This structure is used to join two negative ideas. My father can't speak English. My mother can't speak English. Neither my father nor my mother can speak English. After neither, we use a positive verb to mean a negative idea. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I neither drink nor smoke. (NOT I neither don't drink nor don't smoke.) When two singular nouns are joined by neither…nor, the verb is normally singular, but it can be plural in an informal style. Neither Alice nor Mary is good at painting. (normal) Neither Alice nor Mary are good at paiting. (informal)
