As I've been taking practice tests, I've come across several LG rules that use "neither...nor" language as a conditional. For example: if X then neither Y nor Z. Should this be translated as "Y and Z" or "Y or Z". From my understanding, AND means both, and OR means one or the other or both. Can someone help me with this distinction?

    Does this mean, we can break this compound conditional statement into:

    if X, then not Y

    if X, then not Z

    Neither nor - Not one and not the other.

    So X is not Y AND not Z

    I believe it would be translated: If X then not Y AND not Z. The neither/nor language means if you have X you cannot have y AND you cannot have Z.
