hi

i am trying to convert the English sentece below into First-Order Logic, i found it it very hard please help

If nobody is both a child and a dog then if Fido is a dog Fido
cannot be a child
 
You call p 'is a child' and q 'is a dog'

How can you translate "Nobody is both a child and a dog" ?
How can you translate "if Fido is a dog, Fido is not a child" ?
