Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

She was __________ right nor wrong.

Options:

not

neither

whether

either

Correct Answer:

neither

Explanation:

The most appropriate option to fill in the blank is neither.

The word "neither" means not one or the other of two things. It is the most appropriate word to use in this context, as it conveys the meaning of the person being neither right nor wrong.

The other options are not as appropriate.

  • Not means not at all. This is not the right word to use, as it does not convey the same meaning as "neither."
  • Whether means if or not. This is not the right word to use, as it does not make sense to say that the person was whether right nor wrong.
  • Either means one or the other of two things. This is not the right word to use, as it does not convey the same meaning as "neither."
