Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that work together to coordinate two items. Correlative conjunctions work together in pairs, and there are some kinds of correlative conjunctions. They are :
either . . . or,
neither . . . nor,
not only . . . but also,  and whether…or.
They also establish certain relationship:

a. Condition: either . . . or and whether…or
    For example:
    1) Either you should study harder, or you should take a different course.
    2) I don’t know whether she would come or not.
b. Contrast: neither . . . nor
    For example:
    This job requires ability possessed neither by Jack nor by John.
c. Additional: not only . . . but also
    For example:
    The explosion destroyed not only the school but also the neighboring pub
