Parallelism with that, which, and who Mini-Lesson #73 From the UWF Writing Lab’s 101 Grammar Mini-Lessons Series

What is parallelism? The principle of parallelism requires that writers add or repeat words needed to complete compound structures. That is, words like that, which, and who often need to be repeated in the second half of a compound element, especially if there is any danger of misreading without the repetition of these words. Using and which, and who, and and that (or but which or but who) where there is no preceding who or which clause is a mistake many writers make.

The secret to the parallelism test: Make sure everything is the same!

Parallelism with and that Incorrect: Aunt Rosie said that she would fix her famous lasagna for my birthday dinner and she will also bake my favorite cake. Correct: Aunt Rosie said that she would fix her famous lasagna for my birthday dinner and that she would also bake my favorite cake.

Parallelism with and which and but which Incorrect: We finally replaced our old TV set, which we had bought secondhand and suffered from every known television ailment. Correct: We finally replaced our old TV set, which we had bought secondhand and which suffered from every known television ailment.

Parallelism with and who and but who Incorrect: She is a person who has true compassion for animals, and she tries to find their owners. Correct: She is a person who has true compassion or animals and who tries to find their owners.
