This sentence: " We are wearing glasses and same age." Is it technically correct?
  

Top answer

No, not at all: the 'be' verb needs to be repeated because it has different functions in each case: We are the same age and are wearing glasses. However, I suspect that what you mean is: We are the same age and we both wear glasses.
