Resumo da lição
不仅……还…… adds a second point on top of the first: “not only A, but also B.” The second point is usually stronger, extra, or more important.
Use 不仅……还…… to add information in the same direction. It can connect adjectives, verbs, noun phrases, or clauses, but the two parts should be parallel. The second clause uses 还 before the verb/adjective. Compared with 不但……而且……, 不仅……还…… is very common in speech and writing, and 还 sounds natural in everyday sentences. Do not use it when the second part is opposite to the first; use 不但……反而…… for contrast.
