    Is It Either or Ither?

    The correct spelling is “either,” not “ither” (e.g., “I’ll take either one”). “Ither” is typically a misspelling. As for pronunciation, “either” can be said as /ˈaɪðər/ (EYE-ther) or /ˈiːðər/ (EE-ther)—both are correct and vary by region or preference, like British (/ˈaɪðər/) vs. American (/ˈiːðər/) English.
