Not only...But also ...

"Not only ... But also ..." the words after those 2 phrases must be parallel, hence they have to be the same format. So if the word after Not only was an adjective, then the world after But also must also be an adjective?

不但。。。而且？
If youre trying to translate that into english, we don't really say not only but also. It sounds incredibly weird. I learnt those characters mean that :P
