Question
Which of the following sentence(s) is/are grammatically correct?S1: Either of the teachers is not good enough.S2: Either of the teacher is not good enough.Both S1 and S2S2S1Neither S1nor S2
Solution
The grammatically correct sentence is S1: "Either of the teachers is not good enough."
Here's why:
In English, "either" is used when referring to one of two things. Therefore, it should be followed by a plural noun or pronouns unless the choice is explicitly stated. In S1, "teachers" is correctly used as a plural noun after "either of".
On the other hand, S2: "Either of the teacher is not good enough" is incorrect because "teacher" is singular. It should be "Either of the teachers" to be grammatically correct.
So, the answer is S1.
