And most likely, it is also true that it will open again only in a hundred years. It is useless to bang your forehead against an invisible wall,...

1. The particle neither (always unstressed) is included in the negative pronouns neither who, nor that, nor what, etc. and pronominal adverbs neither where, nor where, nor when, etc.

Remember: pronouns and adverbs with the prefix particle neither are used in sentences where the predicate has the negation not: did not address anyone; I didn’t go there for anything; didn’t walk anywhere (cf.: didn’t Who to contact; Not why go there; no place to go for a walk).

Exceptions: stay neither what to end up with neither what does it have to do with, count for nothing, etc. Wed. also: there is no need to argue (‘there’s no reason, there’s no need’) - medicine is no longer needed (‘unnecessary’ - as a predicate).

The negative predicate may be absent from the sentence, but it is implied: There is no month or stars in the sky; Neither human habitation, neither living souls in the distance(Ch.).

There are different combinations:

None of us (‘no one’) did not chicken out in a moment of danger - Not one of us (‘many’) is ready for a feat;

Never (‘never’) I haven't met him.- More than once (‘often’) met him

2. With the exception of negative pronouns without a preposition (nobody, etc.) and negative adverbs (from nowhere, etc.), the particle is not always written separately: from no one; not a cloud; Neither me nor the dog will not touch you; Neither white threads nor I don't need red ones.

Note. It is necessary to distinguish between the combined spelling of the particle neither in negative pronouns and adverbs (nobody, nowhere, etc.) and the separate spelling neither with relative pronominal words (neither who, nor where, etc.) in the subordinate parts of a complex sentence: I don’t know , neither who you are, nor who he is (T.); To whomever Rostov addressed, no one could say neither where was the sovereign, nor where was Kutuzov (L. T.).

3. The repeating particle does not have the meaning of a connecting conjunction: Neither day nor there was no news from him for a month; Along this road neither pass nor pass; Neither quiet nor the story flows loudly. In these cases, neither is equal in meaning to the combination and not, that is, it acts as a negation. Wed. among writers of the 19th century: Crows are neither fried nor boiled (Kr.); He himself is neither rich, nor noble, nor smart (T.); Elisha was an old man neither rich nor poor (L.T.).

Notes: 1. The construction with a conjunction not only before the last of the listed homogeneous members of the sentence is obsolete: No, really, there are seas, no high mountains, rocks and abysses, no dense forests (Gonch.).

2. The use of a repeated conjunction-particle neither in the meaning of ‘and not’ makes the presence of a conjunction in front of it and (usually before the last homogeneous member of the sentence) redundant. Combination and neither is found relatively rarely: IN in this case doesn't fit neither one nor the other other; And it became easy and simple for me, although neither simple nor easy (here it is adjacent to the union though) ; He cried sadly, soldier, about his girl, neither her husband, nor her brother, nor her godfather, nor her matchmaker, nor her lover (TV.).

4. A single or repeating particle is not included in the stable revolutions:

through thick and thin

as if nothing had happened

out of nowhere

neither fish nor fowl

neither alive nor dead

neither two nor one and a half

neither this nor that

neither give nor take

neither more nor less

no more, no less

5. In independent exclamations and interrogative sentences(often with the words only, really) the particle not is used, and in the subordinate parts of a complex sentence (with a concessive connotation of meaning) the particle nor. Wed:

Wherever he turned! (‘contacted many places’)

Wherever he goes I contacted him and was met with a sympathetic attitude everywhere.

What mother doesn't I made it for my sick son!

Whatever mother did for a sick son, like neither tried to help him, but could not save him.

Wed. Also: What kind of tricks Not a person starts in order not to perish, to achieve happiness, what kind of professions can he choose? Not comes up with ideas, but there is still no luck; Just what Not they give, but they don’t care- with the help of the conjunction a, independent sentences are connected; in the first part there is no subordinate clause with a concessive connotation of meaning, so it is written not.

Note. It is necessary to distinguish between the combinations used in the subordinate parts of complex sentences: whoever, whatever, wherever, etc., in which the particle is not adjacent to the relative word, and the combinations whoever, whatever, wherever, etc. . items in which the particle does not belong to the predicate. Wed:

He helped everyone with advice, no matter who came to him neither applied. — In our team, perhaps, there is no one who would approach him Not sought advice;

Wherever you are were, remember your responsibilities as a human being and a citizen. — In our country there are few families where Not there were casualties during the Great Patriotic War.

In exclamatory sentences with an affirmative meaning in combination with the meaning ‘it doesn’t matter who (what, which, etc.)’ it is possible to use the particle ni: Who told you this? - Who would I didn't say anything!
