A. UNDERSTANDING
PARALLEL STRUCTURE
Parallel structure means using the
same pattern of words to show that two
or more ideas have the same level of
importance. This can happen at the
word, phrase, or clause level.

Parallel structure (also called parallelism)
is the repetition of a chosen grammatical
form within a sentence. By making each
compared item or idea in your sentence
follow the same grammatical pattern, you
create a parallel construction.
