Good One dude.

AfterSome guidelines for you:

neither and either you use a singular verb: Neither candidate was selected for the job.

Neither of and either of are followed by a plural noun or pronoun and a singular or plural verb.

(A plural verb is more informal: Neither of my parents speaks/speak a foreign language).
