Parallel structure with correlative conjunctions 1

Errors in parallel structure can slip into our writing all too easily—and that's especially true with correlative, or two-part, conjunctions. When using one of these two-part conjunctions, we have to be sure to use the same part of speech (noun, verb, etc.) or a similar structure (phrase, clause) after each part.
