Bahasa Melayu: Kata hubung korelatif "neither... nor... but..." digunakan di sini untuk mewujudkan kontras yang tepat.

EN: The word 'ongoing' functions as an attributive adjective, emphasizing a process that is continuous and evolving.

EN: The Subjunctive Mood with verbs of 'demand' or 'requirement'. When verbs like 'demand', 'insist', or 'require' are followed by a 'that' clause, the base form of the verb (bare infinitive) is used regardless of the subject, though 'should' is sometimes implied.
