The "rule" with either/or & neither/nor is that singular subjects need singular verbs, and plural subjects need plural verbs. Siti is a single
person. You would write "Siti is satisfied", not "Siti are satisfied". Anyhow that's the "rule", which I put in quotes in case it riles JTT. I know many people ignore such "rules", but you can scarcely say that following them is wrong.
Two singular subjects connected by or require a singular verb.
Example:
My aunt or my uncle is arriving by train today.
Two singular subjects connected by either/or or neither/nor require a singular verb.
Examples:
Neither Juan nor Carmen is available.
Either Kiana or Casey is helping today with stage decorations.
When I is one of the two subjects connected by either/or or neither/nor, put it second and follow it with the singular verb am.
Example:
Neither she nor I am going to the festival.
When a singular subject is connected by or or nor to a plural subject, put the plural subject last and use a plural verb.
Example:
The serving bowl or the plates go on that shelf.
When a singular and plural subject are connected by either/or or neither/nor, put the plural subject last and use a plural verb.
Example:
Neither Jenny nor the others are available.
