Skill 14: Parallel Structure with Coordinate

Coordinate conjunctions: and, but, or

These conjunction joins noun, verb, adjective, clause or phrases.

Example :
he discussed the problem with the nurse and the doctor

Noun noun
The professor was knowledgeable but boring
Adj adj
Knowledgeable artinya berpengetahuan luas/ bermakna
Boring artinya membosankan
There are meetings in the morning, in the afternoon, and in the evening
Verb

in the morning, in the afternoon, and in the evening disebut adv. Support verb

you can do the work because you want to do it or because you have to do it
clause caluse

yang berwarna disebut parallel structure, jika sebelum kata penghubungnya singular maka setelahnya
harus singular dan juga sebaliknya.

Example of false sentences: contoh kalimat yang salah.

The evening dress was beauty but expensive

noun adj

correct sentences : the evening was beautiful but expensive

ini tidak parallel noun dan adjective.

The students reads each chapter, takes a lot of notes, and memories the material
verb verb verb

Correct sentences : The students reads each chapter, takes a lot of notes, and memoriez the material
verb verb verb
parallel structure with coordinate conjunction

same structure and same structure

but

same structure, same structure and same structure

but
Example :
The living room was decorate with expensive paintings and elegance lamps.
Elegant = Menganti kata elegance diatas

The sick child needs some medicine, some juice and to rest
Some rest = menggantikan kata rest diatas

15. Parallel structure with paired conjunctions

Both same structure and same structure

Either same structure or same structure

Neither same structure nor same structure

Not only same structure but also same structure

Example :
The lecture was both informative and enjoyable
Both dan and disebut pair conjunction

Either the history exam or the physics exam is on tuesday

either dan or disebut pair conjunction.

Example of false sentences :

They want either to play tennis or golf
Kalimat ini tidak parallel yang pertama ada kata kerja sedangkan kata golf tidak ada kata kerjanya.

correct sentence : They want to play either tennis or golf.

Example :
He married her neither for her ability to cook nor her ability to clean house
For her ability

Pair conjuctionnya benar : neither dan nor

Her ability yang kedua tidak ada kata for nya: jd perbaikannya kita tambah
kata for.
Your ideas are neither more important or less important than the ideas of the others.
Nor
Pair conjunction tidak cocok. Kata neither tidak berpasangan dengan kata or. Or seharusnya jadi nor.
