How to use "Either" in context?
"either you do this or I'll do it" Statements are commonly used to persuade someone to take one course of action over another. They are also used to introduce a choice between two courses of action. In these situations, the speaker is looking for a specific response. When making a choice, people tend to lean one way or the other. If the speaker uses a "eithers" statement, the person receiving the message is pushed to a decision. They are given a choice, and are not allowed to just default to the other option. Saying "either" is a way to increase the chances of getting the desired response.
