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".
No, second.
