زمانی که در مورد دو نفر یا دو چیز صحبت میکنیم، میتوانیم از کمیتسنجهای both, either و neither استفاده کنیم.
به جدول زیر نگاهی بیندازید:
More than two supermarkets | Two supermarkets | One supermarket |
All the supermarkets were closed. | Both the supermarkets were closed. | The supermarket was closed. |
None of the supermarkets were open. | Neither of the supermarkets was open. | The supermarket wasn’t open. |
I don’t think any of the supermarkets were open. | I don’t think either of the supermarkets was open. | I don’t think the supermarket was open. |
- دقت کنید که: اسم همراه با both با فعل جمع به کار برده میشود ولی اسم همراه با either و neither با فعل مفرد به کار برده خواهد شد.
