B2 German worksheet on two-part connectors: sowohl … als auch, entweder … oder, weder … noch, nicht nur … sondern auch, zwar … aber, je … desto.
Start with Exercise 1 to check meaning before moving on to word order in Exercises 3–5. Typical mistakes are double negation with weder … noch (weder keine …), using und instead of als auch, using aber instead of sondern after nicht nur, and wrong word order after desto (verb directly after the comparative). As a follow-up, ask learners to write a short text comparing two cities or jobs using at least five different two-part connectors.
