Example:     I wasn't sure if it was A, B, or C. [...], I still knew I would fail.   I thought of either way but I think is not grammatically correct.  What should I chose if I'm referring to two or more options?

Does “either . . . or” apply to only two options?   For example, can I say, “It can provide either 100, 150, or 400 amps of power”? Or should it just be “It can provide 100, 150, or 400 amps of power”?

This will depend on whether he's suitable for the job.    This will depend on whether he's suitable for the job or not.   This will depend on whether or not he's suitable for the job.         It is still not defined whether we're following that approach.   It is still not defined whether we're following that approach or not.   It is still not defined whether or not we're following that approach.         "Or not" doesn't really seem to be needed to complement "whether". Why do people use it then? Is it redundancy and nothing more? Or is it for emphasis? Or are there cases when "or not" is required for the sentence to be grammatical?

Context: I am writing a short text to explain the main differences between Spanish passive sentences with "ser" and "estar", one of which is verb choice: sometimes the adjectival form should be chosen, and sometimes the participle form should. Those are generally the same, but sometimes they differ. The problematic sentence goes like:     Some examples where the participle and the adjectival form differ are: [and a list follows]   In a previous , it was explained that the noun (form) can be either in singular or plural. Because the noun was a general thing, I decided to go with the singular form, but then a verb followed (differ). Now, my question is:    Should the verb be conjugated in third person singular (differs) or plural (differ)?   Common sense tells me that it should be a plural (since there are two forms), but "differ" after "form" doesn't sound right (or does it?). I know I could just change form to forms, but I would like to keep it singular. Besides, I really am interested in knowing how the verb should be conjugated in this kind of phrases when the noun is to be kept in singular.

Is there any logic to this or just decision? I would use the following combinations:   quite amazing rather large pretty good   I would not use the following combinations:   pretty amazing quite large rather good   There're also the words pretty and fairly and of course we say "pretty good" instead of quite good/rather good. Is there any grammar rule that states which word to select to give strength to an adjective without depending on the adjective for no appearant reason?

Take the question:      Did you not go to the store?   If I did not go to the store, should I then say yes? Or no?  If I did go to the the store, would my answer then have to be yes or no?  For me I would think that if I did you go to the store, then the answer to the question would be 'yes'.

Which is more appropriate in the following sentence?     "I asked him to not judge her according to (or: based on) her beauty"   vs     "I asked him not to judge her according to (or:based on) her beauty"   or maybe you wouldn't choose either of the above, but something else?

Q: Why did you write that?  A: I wrote it to see if if we explain our logic clearly we can come to an agreement ...  I'm worried about the "if if" part of the sentence. It doesn't read right to me without the double if, but I have never seen it before.  Is it grammatically correct (and why or why not)?

Conditionals in English are usually formed by using if with normal word order; but for the three past (subjunctive) forms were, should, and had, it is also possible to express the conditional through subject–auxiliary inversion alone, with no if in the conditional clause.  Does forming conditionals in this manner differ semantically from if-conditionals? Is some aspect of the conditional statement or the conditionality emphasised more in one version than in the other? Or are there differences in how and when they are used? Or are they simply completely interchangeable?  For example:     If I were you, I would try it again   Were I you, I would try it again      If I had seen it, I would have told you   Had I seen it, I would have told you      If you should drink, don’t get behind the wheel   Should you drink, don’t get behind the wheel

Consider the following sentences:        I'll move to the south by then probably.   I'll probably move to the south by then.   I'll move to the south probably by then.      Which of the three is correct. In my opinion, the third one is wrong. First two are correct with a small difference in their meaning.  First one makes my probability refer to the time when I'll be moving and the second one tells that there is still a chance that I might not move.  Am I correct?

I'm trying to write a cover letter for a fairly prestigious job, and I'm aiming for (arguably too much) perfection in my cover letter. I don't want to be turned away only because the hiring people though I was too careless with my punctuation and capitalization.  My sentence goes as follows:     I hope to one day go on to complete a Masters degree in Computer Science with a focus in Applied Cryptography.   I've never been great with the technical rules of the English language, despite being a native speaker.

Which one is correct? Leaning towards first one but I am unsure because a more basic version would be "How good is it?"

She put forward two proposals, .......... of which didn’t make any sense to the participants in the summit.  The answer for this question in grammar exercises is ‘either’. I am doubtful whether to use either or neither. Can any one clarify this with reason.
