New American Oxford Dictionary

both

both |bōTH boʊθ | ▶predeterminer, determiner, & pronoun used to refer to two people or things, regarded and identified together: [ as predeterminer ] : both his parents indulged him | [ as determiner ] : I urge you to read both these books | she held on with both hands | he was blind in both eyes | [ as pronoun ] : a picture of both of us together | Jackie and I are both self-employed | he looked at them both. ▶adverb used before the first of two alternatives to emphasize that the statement being made applies to each (the other alternative being introduced by “and ”): they all loved to play, both the boys and the girls | it has won favor with both young and old | studies of finches, both in the wild and in captivity. PHRASES have it both ways benefit from two incompatible ways of thinking or behaving: countries cannot have it both ways: the cost of a cleaner environment may sometimes be fewer jobs. ORIGIN Middle English: from Old Norse báthir. usage: When both is used in constructions with and, the structures following ‘both ’ and ‘and ’ should be symmetrical in well-formed English. Thus, studies of zebra finches, both in the wild and in captivity is stronger and clearer than studies of zebra finches, both in the wild and captivity. In the second example, the symmetry or parallelism of ‘in the wild ’ and ‘in captivity ’ has been lost.
