And even
Are these sentences correct:
1-I wonder if my mother and even my father know about this.
2-I am not sure if my mother and even my father know about this.
Do they mean I think there is more of a chance of my father knowing it or less of one?
Gratefully,
Navi.

" I think this means that more chance of the father knowing it might be expected , but not necessarily that the speaker thinks this is actually the case. By the way, the numbering format that you always use, which consists of a numeral followed by a hyphen followed by the text, with no spaces, is incorrect in my opinion.

Thank you very much GPY for all your kind replies.
I am trying to replace the hyphen with a parenthesis, but old habits die hard.
Many thanks.
