と, and, and with

[A] と [B] / [Person] と

と joins nouns into a complete list, and marks the person you do something with.

The mistake to avoid

と only joins nouns, never sentences or adjectives, and the list is exhaustive. For an incomplete list use や.

Examples

パンと卵を買います。

パンとたまごをかいます。

I will buy bread and eggs.

友達と行きます。

ともだちといきます。

I am going with a friend.
