Grammar usage guide and real-world examples

USAGE SUMMARY

"for also" is not a correct and usable phrase in written English.
It is not part of a complete sentence and does not make grammatical sense. Instead, you could use phrases like "in addition," "furthermore," "moreover," or "also" to add information or support to a previous statement. Example: "I am going to the store to buy groceries. In addition, I need to pick up some milk." OR "I am going to the store to buy groceries. Furthermore, I need to pick up some milk." OR "I am going to the store to buy groceries. Moreover, I need to pick up some milk." OR "I am going to the store to buy groceries. Also, I need to pick up some milk."
