Neither with another negative

[Ju]

I've found the following information from Cambridge dictionary.

The use of neither with another negative, as in:

1. I don’t like him neither.

2. He’s not much good at reading neither.

I'm confused as I thought 1) should be written as
"I don't like him either."

Please help.

Thanks.

I'm with you. Cambridge is dead wrong on both of those.

Of course, I'm a Yankee. Let's see what the Brits say.

Sorry, should be Oxford dictionary.

The use of neither with another negative, as in:

I don’t like him neither.
He’s not much good at reading neither.

is recorded from the 16th century onwards, but is not considered Standard English. This is because it is an example of a double negative, which, though standard in some other languages such as Spanish and found in many dialects of English, is not acceptable in standard English. In the sentences above, either should be used instead. For more information, see double negatives.

Since it's not standard English. So I should write:
"I don't like him either."

Am I right?

Since it's not standard English, should I write

"I don't like him either"?

Yes.
