Ways to tell them apart:
- "Either" is a standard word in English often used to indicate a choice between two options.
- "Ither" is not a recognized standard English word, but may appear as a dialectal variation or misspelling.
- Remember that "ither" can sometimes be seen in informal speech or variations, but "either" is the correct form in standard English.
- Focus on the letter E at the beginning of "either" to remind you it is the established form.
- If you're writing or speaking in formal settings, always use "either."
