Parallel structure, also known as parallelism, refers to the use of consistent grammatical structure in a sentence or a paragraph. It involves placing equal or similar elements in a sentence in parallel form, which enhances clarity, rhythm, and aesthetics in writing. Parallel structure typically involves using the same grammatical form for items in a list, series, or comparison. It can include parallelism in terms of verbs, nouns, adjectives, adverbs, phrases, or clauses. For example:
Not Parallel: She likes reading books, cooking, and to run.
Parallel: She likes reading books, cooking, and running.
Not Parallel: He is funny, intelligent, and has a positive attitude.
Parallel: He is funny, intelligent, and positive.
Not Parallel: She likes reading books, cooking, and to run.
Parallel: She likes reading books, cooking, and running.
Not Parallel: He is funny, intelligent, and has a positive attitude.
Parallel: He is funny, intelligent, and positive.
