Hi there!:

Today in class, I explained three special cases to consider when working with Correlative Conjunctions:

1. Rule of proximity:

The verb which follows two subjects joined by a correlative conjunction must agree with the second subject, NOT the first:

• Either my brother or my mum look looks after our cat when we’re away on holiday.
• Either my brother or my parents looks look after our cat when we’re away on holiday.
• Neither the manager nor his assistant are is here today.
• Neither the manager nor his assistants is are here today.

When not only is used at the beginning of a sentence and joins two clauses, the auxiliary verb of the not only clause is placed before the subject. This is a coordinating conjunction.

CLAUSES

Not only did  I applaud, but I also stood up. I applauded the performance, and I stood up.

Not only do  I like to watch movies, but I also like to see plays. I like to watch movies, and I like to see plays.

3. When Neither…nor begins a sentence:

Neither did   I   take vacation, nor did I ask for sick leave.
Move the auxiliary verb in front of the subject.
