Usage of 'And' by using adjective for two more words
Hej!
I am writing an essay and I am stuck on grammar problem. My question is that:
How can I link with two different subjects by using 'and'? The problem is that one of two subjects has two words. Specifically, I want to write as a title: 'gendered globalization and cultural clashes' I want to say both globalization and cultural clashes are gendered, but to use 'both' is not good in the title.
For instance, should I write that: Gendered Globalization and of Cultural Clashes?
And also I want to emphasize firstly 'globalization'.
Thank you in advance.
Warm regards,
Seyda.

Answer

I suggest adding a colon, like this: 
"Gendered: globalization and cultural clashes."

Answer

In your original title, "Gendered Globalization and Cultural Clashes," the adjective "gendered" is properly understood to describe only "globalization" because the word "cultural is also an adjective and is describing "clashes." Your second suggestion, "Gendered Globalization and of Cultural Clashes," doesn't work either.

I'm having trouble making a better suggestion, because I'm not even sure what you're trying to say. Sorry.
