You use the indefinite in place of not one and not the other of the nouns for two people or things; neither is a singular form representing both nouns as a unit. Example:
John and Jane are behind, neither have turned in the assignment.
I like both of these resorts but neither is affordable right now.

What is the simple subject in the sentence Neither Mercury nor Pluto are as large as earth?
In your sentence "Neither Mercury nor Pluto are as large as Earth," the word, Neither, is the subject. In classical English it would read, "Neither Mercury nor Pluto is as large as Earth." However American English prefers smooth flow and tends to ignore the rules of classical grammar. It tends to have the verb take the form of the noun or nouns immediately preceding the verb. Thus, while in Classical English, the verb would be is since the subject is Neither, American English is likely to use the verb are since it immediately follows Mercury and Pluto.
Is neither him nor you expect to attend the meeting correct grammmar?
No, it should be "neither he nor you expect to attend the meeting"."Neither he nor you" is a compound subject, so you need to use the subjective form of the pronouns. "Him" is the objective form, so it is not correct here. One way to test this is to simplify the sentence by using a simple subject instead of a compound subject: It is easier to see that you would say "he expects to attend" and not "him expects to attend".There is another aspect of this example that can be confusing: "he" and "you" take different forms of the verb "expect": you would say "he expects to attend", but "you expect to attend". The rule in this case is to use the verb form that is correct for the subject closer to it. That is why it is correct to say "neither he nor you expect to attend the meeting" rather than "neither he nor you expects to attend the meeting".

Add the correct word Neither Timothy nor Simon BLANK happy today?
The correct verb for this sentence is the singular linking verb "is." "Neither Timothy nor Simon is happy today." Verbs for compound subjects linked with "or" or "nor" will always match the number of the last member of the compound subject. For example: "Neither his sister nor his brothers are hungry." "Neither his brothers nor his sister is hungry." In the above examples, if the singular "is" seems odd, then reverse the order of the members of the compound subject and use "are." In other words use the first version. The writer chooses the order of the members of a compound subject in a sentence and, therefore, controls the verb, too.
