1.Definition of Parallel Structure Parallel structure is a match or parallel structure


in a sentence. The point is that the elements in a sentence use the same
grammatical pattern. Elements in a sentence can be a noun (noun), a
phrase (phrase), or a clause (clause). By using this parallelism or parallel
structure, we will be able to show that the elements in the sentence are
equivalent to one another.
Example:
1.The show will be held in Bandung, Jakarta, Semarang, and Yogyakarta.
2.This cake is not for you but for your mother.
3.I like music, art, and poem
4.The questions in the exam were simple but difficult.
5.I bought this ring not for my girlfriend but for my little sister.

2.Simple Sentences
The most basic type of English sentence is the simple structure. This is when a
sentence is composed of just one independent clause – a clause which
contains a subject (the noun performing the action of the sentence) and
predicate (the action being taken) and expresses a complete thought. Like
all sentences, it can also contain a direct object (the noun receiving the
action of a sentence) or indirect object (the object for whom the action is
being done).

A few simple sentence examples:


1.I didn’t go to the game.
2 She was correct.
3.The writer was out of ideas.
4.The movie was over two hours long.
5.I like coffe.
