Both = keduanya
Two = dua, berdua
a. Kata ganti both
digunakan hanya setelah konteks yang digantikannya sudah jelas. Yaitu adanya
fakta bahwa ada dua orang atau dua benda yang sedang dibicarakan.
There were two little girls
in the room. Both of them are pretty.
b. The both harus dihindari dalam bahasa Inggris formal.
The two of them (bukan the both of them) were invited.
c. Bahasa Inggris formal lebih
menggunakan the two of you bukan you both.
Notices will be sent
to the
two of you (bukan the both of you)
