| neither Neither is followed by a singular or plural verb, although a singular verb is usually regarded as more correct: ? Neither of us likes the idea very much. ? Neither of the old women in the house was in bed. ? Neither of them were drunk. It is sometimes impossible to tell whether the verb is singular or plural because there is no difference in form: ? Neither of us spoke for a few minutes. This increases the uncertainty. Recommendation: use a singular verb for preference. Note that neither should be paired with nor, not with or: ? He possessed neither arms nor armour. |
