This is everyday grammar.
-
I'm Kavi and I'm Macia covet.
-
What do you know about conjunctions?
-
I need help with an English test that is coming up.
-
Well, a conjunction is a word used to connect clauses or sentences.
-
Is there something specific you want to learn?
-
Yes.
-
I need to know about paired conjunctions specifically both and as well as not on Lee.
-
But also, I asked both my colleague Jag and my friend jail about this, but they couldn't explain it to me.
-
Both Jack and Jew.
-
Both Jack and Jill.
-
That's one structure to know both.
-
Plus Noun.
-
Plus and plus now.
-
Yeah, but I don't think you're listening.
-
Both Jack and Jill.
-
We're having coffee.
-
When I asked them about grammar, both Jack and Jill were having coffee.
-
Yes, two subjects connected by both.
-
And take a plural verb.
-
Right.
-
Okay.
-
I still don't think you're listening anyway right after the test, not only my sister, but also my parents are going to want to know how he did.
-
I'm feeling ah, lot of pressure.
-
Well, it is true that when two subjects air connected by not on lee, but also the subject closer to the verb determines whether the verb is singular or plural.
-
Listen, I hear you talking, but you're not really saying anything that can help me.
-
I have a feeling you'll be just fine.
