During his fast he neither ate food nor drank liquids identify the correlating conjunction

A correlating conjunction is a word that brings two similar words or phrases together. In this case the correlating conjunction is "neither" because that is bringing together "ate food" and "drank liquids" .

Mark Brailiest

Neither and nor

Explanation:

Correlative or correlating conjunction is a type of conjunction that comes in pairs, although its words are not next to each other, and whose function is to join sentence elements that are equally important. Some of them are neither/nor (as it is used in the sentence), both/and, not only/but also, as/as, as many/as, such/that, rather/than and whether/or.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
