Additional Information:
Not only - but also:
1. This is a phrase in English language.
2. This phrase is generally used to show the relation between two different things.
3. If the sentence contains the words 'and', 'both', 'as well as', etc., they are interchanged with 'not only - but also'.
4. Not only is used before the first thing ( adjective ), while but also is used before the second adjective.
5. For example,
Ravindranath Tagore was a great writer and well known poet.
In this sentence, there are two adjectives used.
The first adjective is great and the second one is well known.
To use 'not only - but also' in this sentence, we have to interchange the word and with not only - but also.
We have to use not only before great and but also before well known.
Hence, the sentence will be,
Ravindranath Tagore was not only a great writer but also a well known poet.
