<p>Is this right:
The park neither is enjoyable nor entertaining
or is this right:
The park neither is enjoyable nor is entertaining.</p>
<p>The park both is a place where family and friends can get together and a place where one can enjoy the beauty of nature</p>
<p>or. The park both is a place where family and friends can get together and is a place where one can enjoy the beauty of nature</p>
<p>No it sounds unnecessary. </p>
<p>"The park is neither enjoyable nor entertaining. "</p>
<p>The verb comes before the neither nor. </p>
<p>The park is both a place where family can get together and where one can enjoy beauty. </p>
<p>sounds best to me</p>

<p>i was asking if the phrase both is...and is... is wrong</p>
<pre><code> instead of using that phrase should one always use the phrase is both...and
</code></pre>
<p>Yeah since the verb coming before the both usually sounds better, I think both...and sounds better.</p>
