À propos de し~し

Like , is a conjunction particle. This means that it is used for linking the (A) and (B) parts of a sentence, and describing that link in some way. The 'description' that will highlight is 'reasons'. Regularly it is translated simply as 'and'.

may be connected to the end of almost any word, but will require a before it when it comes after nouns or な-Adjectives. will follow every 'reason' that is being listed in a sentence. However, the last may be replaced with から or ので, before the 'result' is stated.

Using will indicate that each 'reason' being listed is of equal weight/importance. Because of this, it would not be appropriate to use in sentences where one of the reasons clearly far outweighs everything else.

Fun Fact

In all of its uses, indicates things that are 矛盾(むじゅん)()共存(きょうぞん)する, which basically means 'things that coexist, without contradicting each other'. This is the primary reason why each thing listed must be of equal importance (in terms of the overall story that the speaker is trying to convey).

        Many of the し ~ し sentences contain: (among other things). I can kind of see that this could be implied but it’s not clear, to me, in the grammar description.

        彼女は親切だ、綺麗だ、本当に大好き。
        She is kind and beautiful (among other things). I really love her.

        So I keep getting this mixed with とか-とか.

        So does し imply among other things?
