A. Cách sử dụng both / neither / either

Chúng ta sử dụng both / neither / either với hai vật, sự việc, ... Bạn có thể dùng các từ này cùng với danh từ (both books, neither books...) .

Ví dụ, bạn đang nói về việc đi ăn tiệm chiều nay. Có hai nhà hàng mà bạn có thể tới, bạn nói:

1. both = cả hai

- Both restaurants are very good. (không nói "the both restaurants")

(Cả hai nhà hàng đều rất ngon.)

2. neither = không cái nào

- Neither restauranrs is expensive.

(Không nhà hàng nào đắt cả.)

3. either = một trong hai, cái nào cũng được

- We can go to either restaurant. I don't mind.

(Chúng ta có thể tới nhà hàng nào cũng được. Tôi không có ý kiến gì.)

B. Cách sử dụng Both of... / neither of... / either of...

Khi bạn sử dụng both / neither / either + of, bạn luôn luôn cần thêm the... / these / those... / my / your / his / Tom's... . Bạn không thể nói "both of restaurant". Bạn phải nói "both of the restaurants", "both of those restaurants" ...:

Ví dụ:

Chúng ta cần sử dụng both of trước us/you/them (of là cần phải có) :

- Both of us were very tired. (không nói 'Both us were...')

(Cả hai chúng tôi đều rất mệt.)

Sau neither of... động từ có thể chia ở số ít hay số nhiều đều được:

- Neither of the children wants (hay want) to go to bed.

(Không đứa nào trong bọn trẻ muốn đi ngủ cả.)

C. Khi sử dụng both / neither / either đứng một mình
