Grammar
both/neither/either
1. I had two eggs for breakfast and both of them was fresh.
2. I had two eggs for breakfast and neither of them was fresh.
3. I had two eggs for breakfast and either of them was fresh.
Correct is sentence 2.
But I think that sentences 1. and 3. are also correct grammatically. Why are they incorrect? They don´t make sence? As for me
I would vote for sentence 1. as I wouldn´t suppose that he/she really had for breakfast two stale eggs.
Thanks a lot.
