How do you pronounce either? Or is it pronounced either> How about the word neither? Or again,
is it pronounced neither? By the end of this video, you will know exactly how to pronounce
these four (*TWO) words and when you should use them. Hi, my name is Emma and welcome to

Now, I did a little bit of research for this video and when I was looking at different resources and
different dictionaries, a lot of the resources and dictionaries concluded something more or less like
this. That the pronunciations either and neither were particularly, or predominantly, used more in
American English, while either and neither were used more by British English speakers. However,
many of you may have had contact with Brits, and you may have found that Brits tend to use either,
either, neither, neither. We tend to use all four pronunciations, and that's because it's
completely fine. So even though the dictionaries tend to specify that we use either and neither,
we actually tend to use all four of them, it just depends on what comes out first. And as
you can see here on multiple dictionaries websites, you can see that it actually has
both pronunciations available there. You can see either, either, neither, neither,
and so on. Both for British English and American English. Now, let's focus on
the pronunciation. I'm just going to focus on how it's pronounced in Modern Received Pronunciation,
simply because my American accent is terrible and I don't want to offend anyone. So we have
either, so two syllables, either, either. The second way either, either.
In a sentence, I don't eat meat. I don't eat it either. I don't eat it either.
I don't eat it either. I don't eat it either. Do you prefer the red one or the blue one?
Either is fine. Either is fine. Either is fine. Either is fine. Now, let's look at neither.
So it's exactly the same as either, we're just adding that 'n' the beginning. Neither, neither.
In a sentence, neither of them want to go. Neither of them want to go. Neither of them want to go.
Neither of them want to go. Which do you prefer? Neither, They're both bad.
Neither. They're both bad. Neither. They're both bad.
Neither. They're both bad. So tell me in the comments, do you say either or either? Neither
or neither? Or are you like the majority of Brits and do you mix it up a bit and use all four
pronunciations? Let me know in the comments and also comment where you're from, because it will be
interesting to know where people are from and who is using which different pronunciations. Thank you
