neither/nor

Post by hanuman_2000 »

Sir,

She didn't want any Pizza.
She didn't want any choclate.

I want to join these two sentences using "neither/nor".

She wanted neither any Pizza nor any choclate.

My doubt is about the word "any".
Is it correct?

Although not strictly ungrammatical, 'any' is redundant here.
