No. 99 in Greek
ούτε
"Neither" or "nor."
In a sentence
Δεν έχω ούτε χρόνο ούτε ενέργεια για αυτό το έργο.
I have neither the time nor the energy for this task.
In this sentence, "ούτε" is used in a correlating construction to express 'neither...nor.' It connects two nouns indicating the absence of both.
Δεν μπορεί να διαλέξει ούτε αυτό ούτε εκείνο.
He cannot choose either this or that.
Here, "ούτε" functions as a conjunction expressing mutual exclusivity or inability, used repeatedly to emphasize the choices are not plausible.
Ούτε η Μαρία ούτε ο Πέτρος είναι παρόντες.
Neither Maria nor Peter are present.
In this case, "ούτε" works as a correlating conjunction used with subjects, indicating that both Maria and Peter are absent.
