Subj. + 不但 ⋯⋯ ，而且 ⋯⋯


</div>
The same subject should apply to both the first part and the second part (the part after 而且).

The pattern can also be used omitting 而且, and instead using adverbs like 也 and 还 in its place.

=== <span id="Examples" class="mw-headline">Examples</span> ===

<div class="liju">

* 这个 东西 ''不但'' 贵 ，''而且'' 难 买 。<span class="pinyin">Zhège dōngxi ''bùdàn'' guì, ''érqiě'' nán mǎi .</span><span class="trans">This thing is not only expensive, but also hard to buy.</span>
* 这 道 菜 ''不但'' 好看 ，''也'' 好吃 。<span class="pinyin">Zhè dào cài ''bùdàn'' hǎokàn, ''yě'' hǎochī.</span><span class="trans">This dish is not only good-looking, but also delicious.</span>
* 她 ''不但'' 聪明 ，''而且'' 很 幽默 。<span class="pinyin">Tā ''bùdàn'' cōngming, ''érqiě'' hěn yōumò.</span><span class="trans">She is not only smart, but also very humorous.</span>
* 她 ''不但'' 离开 了 我 ，''还'' 拿走 了 我 所有 的 钱 。<span class="pinyin">Tā ''bùdàn'' líkāi le wǒ, ''hái'' názǒu le wǒ suǒyǒu de qián.</span><span class="trans">Not only did she leave me, but she also took all my money.</span>

</div>
== <span id="Used_with_Two_Subjects" class="mw-headline">Used with Two Subjects</span> ==

When there is only one subject with 不但⋯⋯而且⋯⋯, the subject has to come at the beginning of the sentence, before both 不但 and 而且. When using two different subjects, however, you need to put one after 不但 and one after 而且.

=== <span id="Structure_2" class="mw-headline">Structure</span> ===

<div class="jiegou">

不但 + Subj. 1 ⋯⋯ ，而且 + Subj. 2 + 也 ⋯⋯


</div>
The pattern can also be used omitting 而且, and instead using adverbs like 也 in its place.

=== <span id="Examples_2" class="mw-headline">Examples</span> ===
