Grammatical usage of prepositions: before or after “not only. and also…”
Which one is more universal of “not only” or “also”?
I saw a sentence in an article:…masters
were responsible not only for teaching their apprentices a trade but also for providing them some education… But
I thought omitting the second “for…” would be fine:…masters were
responsible for not only teaching their apprentices a trade but also providing them some education…
Both of those constructs are fine. Both work fine as they both are examples of correct grammar.
Is parallelism hard to find?
Is it theoretical or scientific?
