Around the age of 42-48 months, typically developing children start to understand and use “either/or” sentences. “Either” is an unusual word. It can be a determiner, a pronoun, an adverb, or a conjunction, depending on the context in which it is used.

In this resource, we focus on “either” as a conjunction used to connect two clauses, e.g.:

“Either we stop for coffee or we keep driving.”
