"nor" or "or"

Hi teachers,

Am I right, to use "nor" in the following sentence? Gaze into the end of creations, you will find no greater love than a mother’s, a daughter’s, nor a wife’s.


Thanks in advance, AL

"Gaze into the end of creations" sounds strange. I think you meant something else. Try again with plainer words.

  • The negative does not extend to the women here.
