''Either'' in a question

Hi,teachers I have a question about either.

A:His answer is incorrect.

B:Isn't my answer correct,either?

Can I use either in a question like B?

No, it is not correct. It's not necessary to use "either" in that question and it doesn't make sense when you do. ".

I would try using "Is my answer correct, as well?" or "Is my answer correct, too?".

Dear kook j

Daniel provided you with an excellent answer - no.

Either is a conjunction and an adverb and it is used before the first of two (or occasionally more) alternatives that are being specified.

Thank you for answering me.

If Daniel's answer was

Is my answer incorrect as well/too?

I would have understood him.

And I know what John said but unfortunately that seems not to be the point here.
