The use of or.

Nobuo Saito   Wednesday, August 21, 2002, 11:17 GMT
You can say(or write) there is A or B or C.
You can also say there is A, B or C.
The two sentences have the same meaning.
Here, A, B. C are nouns.
Which expression is more often used?

How about "and" instead of "or"?

Thanks in advance.

"A, B, or C" would be used more often to avoid repeating the "or".

Any native speaker's opinion?

Can any one tell me which one is correct of the following?

to make a nursery, or
to establish a nursery, or
to build a nursery, or
to grow a nursery?

Shakeel,

It depends what kind of nursery you mean. Any nursery can be 'built'. To establish would be to make it official. And you would grow 'in' or 'at' a nursery.

The term you may be looking for is 'creating a nursery', or 'starting up a nursery'.
