| Jul 21, 2023 at 10:26 | comment | added | Edwin Ashworth | Hello, tung hai Kuo. Compound predicates (no [overt] second subject). // There are many accomplished writers who are happy to use sentences such as 'I went to high school, then I went to college' and 'I popped the cup into the microwave, set it to nuke anything unfortunate enough to be caught within its grasp for thirty seconds, then raided my fridge for sustenance.' See Brenner's fine article at Can 'then' be used as a coordinating conjunction?. | |
