I can either wear black or white dress tomorrow.

Why is this sentence correct? I thought it should be:

I can wear either black or white dress tomorrow.

OR

I can either wear black or wear white dress tomorrow.

thx

because wear is coming before either and it will imply only to black dress but in order to keep the sentence parallel and clear we need to have wear coming after either

I can either wear black or [wear] wear white dress tomorrow.

First sentence is definitely not right since it addresses only Black.....

other two are okay. Are you sure that the first one is right? Where does it originates from?

Regards

I agree with you. I also think that the first sentence is not correct! According to e-gmat, it is correct. but perhaps it is a mistake?

could an expert help please? :-)

Yes the first sentence is not correct for the reasons mentioned. When we have a two pair parallelism marker, we should make sure that whatever follows one word should also follow the other word of the marker pair.

If indeed this sentence is listed as correct in our course material, we will rectify the mistake. However, we were unable to find this version of the sentence in our course material. The only version that exists in the concept is - sentence 2. It is listed in the concept - Idioms - Standard Expressions. So Fractal, feel free to send me a PM or email me at [email protected] to tell me where you found this version! :)

Thanks,

Payal
