Hello,

I've seen the following sentence :
"Kostas' identity was not revealed to either Andrew nor Jim".
Is this correct?

I would have thought that the following two are correct and that the above is wrong :
"Kostas' identity was not revealed to either Andrew or Jim".
"Kostas' identity was revealed to neither Andrew nor Jim".

What do you think?
 
I agree with you.

And so do I.
 
Thanks to all!
