00:00.190 --> 00:04.560
Now let's review and practice a bit.

00:04.660 --> 00:10.640
Remember that we use bubbles as an equivalent to one in the other.

00:10.680 --> 00:14.030
You can use spelled with plural nouns on its own.

00:14.050 --> 00:18.820
Or it can be followed by off with or without an article.

00:18.820 --> 00:26.890
Now when followed by a plural pronoun both must be separated from the pronoun by off.

00:26.890 --> 00:35.260
Now read the following sentence and fill in the blank using the appropriate distributive the parties

00:35.350 --> 00:36.700
sign the papers.

00:36.730 --> 00:37.420
On Monday

00:42.840 --> 00:45.930
both of the parties signed the papers.

00:45.930 --> 00:58.040
On Monday now either is positive and when used the loan refers to one of the two members of the pair.

00:58.160 --> 01:05.230
It is equivalent to one or the other because it refers to just one member of a pair.

01:05.240 --> 01:10.450
Remember that either must be used before a singular noun.

01:10.460 --> 01:16.480
Now we can also be used for the plural noun or pronoun if followed by.

01:16.480 --> 01:24.320
Off now read the following sentence and fill in the blank using the appropriate form of the distributive

01:24.530 --> 01:26.380
either.

01:26.390 --> 01:29.300
I haven't been to those cafes

01:32.970 --> 01:38.880
I haven't been to either of those cafes.

01:38.920 --> 01:46.870
Also remember that either can be used with or in a construction that talks about each member of the

01:46.870 --> 01:47.450
pair.

01:47.560 --> 01:55.870
In turn now the meaning remains the same but in this case either is not functioning as a distributive

01:56.440 --> 02:04.090
it is functioning as a conjunction now with the following sentence and fill in the blank using the appropriate

02:04.090 --> 02:07.410
form of either.

02:07.620 --> 02:09.270
Stay with me.

02:09.330 --> 02:10.130
Go away

02:13.940 --> 02:16.610
either stay with me or go away.

02:18.880 --> 02:27.040
Note that neither is negative and when you use the loan refers to a whole pair it is equivalent to not

02:27.340 --> 02:29.130
one or the other.

02:29.530 --> 02:38.170
And because it refers to just one member of a pair neither must be used before a singular noun.

02:38.200 --> 02:46.440
Now it can also be used with a plural noun or pronoun but it must be followed by off now read the following

02:46.440 --> 02:51.670
sentence and fill in the blank using the appropriate form of the distributive.

02:51.720 --> 02:57.750
Neither classmate wanted to work on a project together with Peter

03:02.890 --> 03:08.140
neither classmate wanted to work on the project together with Peter

03:10.860 --> 03:18.700
also known then neither can be used with nor in a construction that talks about each member of the pair.

03:18.720 --> 03:27.090
In turn now the meaning remains the same but in this case neither is not functioning as a distributive

03:27.480 --> 03:30.100
it is functioning as a conjunction.

03:30.120 --> 03:37.790
Now read the following sentence and fill in the blanks using the appropriate form of neither.

03:37.880 --> 03:41.570
Mom Dad came to our graduation ceremony

03:45.150 --> 03:48.960
neither Mom nor dad came to our graduation ceremony.
