"as well as" and other similar conjunctions
I am not too familiar with conjunctions such as "as well as". Are these more so idioms than anything else? Or does each word in the multi-word conjunctions actually hold meaning together?
Top answer
"as well as" is idiomatic. Its meaning is not predictable from its component words. I couldn't comment on "similar" cases without seeing specifically which ones you mean.
