Either/or and neither/nor

1.Either / or - used in a sentence in the affirmative
sense when referring to a choice between two
possibilities
We can either eat now or after the show - it's up to
you.
2. Neither / nor - used in a sentence in the negative
 sense when you want to say that two or more
things are not true
Neither my mother nor my father went to university.
Singular or plural
When using either/or and neither/nor, note the following
rules:
1. If both elements are singular, then the verb is singular too.
Either the father or the mother has to attend the meeting.
(father and mother are singular; so the verb has is singular
too)
Neither Leila nor Nancy is going to write the report. (Leila
and Nancy are singular; so the verb is singular too)
2. However, if one of the elements is plural, then use a plural
verb.
Either Radha or the girls are going to prepare dinner tonight.
(the girls is plural; so the verb are is plural too)
Neither the teacher nor the students were in the classroom
this morning. (the students is plural; so the verb were is
plural too)
