[請益] 既不 也不 (兩者皆無) 怎麼表達較好

[iplfl (iplfl)]

 Both the left hand and the right foot were not injured.
 Neither the left hand nor the right foot was injured.

 如果要講的是兩者皆無受傷
 到底哪一句比較正確
 還是比較好?
 Thanks

→ dunchee: 第二句。Neither ... nor 的意思明確，就是"兩者皆無..."
→ dunchee: 第一句的問題在於(單獨一句時)意思模糊，基本上是這情況:
→ dunchee: 1　有　有
→ dunchee: 2　有　無
→ dunchee: 3　無　有
→ dunchee: 4　無　無
→ dunchee: ----------
→ dunchee: 1 是 Both ... were injured。那麼1之外的 2,3,4 就都是
→ dunchee:  Both .... were not injured 的情況
→ dunchee: 第二句的 Neither ... nor 就只有 4 的情況(兩者皆無)
→ dunchee: 所以意思明確
→ dunchee: 參考我以前寫的blog(有些亂就是):
→ dunchee: https://tinyurl.com/ycrvvbad  有你問的句型
→ iplfl: 總之 若要明確表達兩者任一個皆無 用 neither ... nor...
→ iplfl: 如果用 Both ... and ... 就是二者中至少有一者沒有
→ iplfl: 對吧?
