In English grammar, parallelism is the similarity of structure in a pair or series of related words, phrases,
or clauses. Also called parallel structure, paired construction, and isocolon.

By convention, items in a series appear in parallel grammatical form: a noun is listed with other nouns,
an -ing form with other -ing forms, and so on. Kirszner and Mandell point out that parallelism
"adds unity, balance, and coherence to your writing.

Effective parallelism makes sentences easy to follow and emphasizes relationships among equivalent
ideas" (The Concise Wadsworth Handbook, 2014).

In traditional grammar, failure to arrange related items in parallel grammatical form is called faulty
parallelism.
