Mensagem:   Thanks Dale,

That really helped. I had the feeling that "neither" would only be used for two, but I guess the interference of L1 makes us doubt some pretty obvious things. We don't have a similar word to "neither" in Portuguese, therefore, we would translate it as "Nenhum", which is more like "none", isn't it?
