Does #1 mean #2 and #3? •English - Writeacher, Friday, October 21, 2016 at 10:36pm
2 and 3 are identical, aren't they? 1. It's usually very windy and foggy.
2. It's usually very windy and it's very foggy.
3. It's usually very windy and it's very foggy.
Yes, they mean the same as 1, but the extra words make them wordy.

I corrected two parts.
1. It's usually very windy and foggy.
2. It's usually very windy and it's very foggy.
3. It's usually very windy and it's foggy.

Does #1 mean #2 or #3?

They still all mean about the same thing.
1 has a compound predicate adjective "windy and foggy" which is modified by "very."
2 and 3 have become compound sentences -- two shorter sentences in each, joined together by "and."
The only difference in 3 is that there must be a little less fog, since it's not "very foggy" anymore!

Thank you. Do you mean that #1 means #2. Do you mean #1 doesn't mean #3?
1. It's usually very windy and foggy.
2. It's usually very windy and it's very foggy.
3. It's usually very windy and it's foggy.
