并(且)(bìng(qiě)) meaning "moreover" can be used to connect verbs. In this structure the two verbs used are equal to each other with neither being primary or secondary.

Structure

Verb / [Verb Phrase 1] + 并(且) + Verb / [Verb Phrase 2]

Notice that "并且" is used with verbs, unlike "和" which is used with nouns.

Examples

Here are some examples:

  • 爸爸 批评 了 我 并且 告诉 我 以后 不 能 说谎。My dad criticized me and and also told me that I cannot lie again.
