ERRORS RELATING TO PARELLELISM

 In examinations there are questions  relating to sentences of  errors of different types. One of these is also those of  parellelism. 
Parellilsm means use of one similar format of grammer in different parts of the sentence. One part is compared with the other. In such cases, a noun should be compared with a noun, a verb with a verb or an adjective with an adjective. Between these parts conjunctions are used. 
In parellelism the elements of a sentence should be in the same grammatical form. They are generally joined by and, but, not only....but also, either or, neither nor.
Here are some examples of such sentences on the pattern of competitive examinations.
