[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

Yes, the sentence "My sister Aliah is both a comic and smart" is an example of a parallel sentence. In parallel structure, similar ideas are expressed in a balanced way. In this case, the parallel elements are "a comic" and "smart," as they are both adjectives describing Aliah. To create more parallelism, you can add the word "both" before each adjective. The revised sentence would then be: "My sister Aliah is both a comic and both smart."
