, AND [subject] ALSO [verb] |
“And also” sounds redundant and should be avoided. "And" is a conjunction,
while "also" is an adverb. This non-grammatical expression is often used to join items that
are not closely related; for instance, "Our store sells fruit and also
furniture." Only a conjunction can form a compound object. An
adverb must refer to a verb. It is much better to say "Our store sells food, and it also
sells furniture." It may take a bit longer, but it sounds much better.
