~し (listing reasons)
grammar37 sentences
The conjunctive ~し attached to a clause to chain it to the next, used to list reasons, qualities, or facts in parallel — 'X-し, Y-した,' 'and what's more / and besides / on top of that.' Slightly more written/literary than ~て chaining; common in narratives, lists of reasons, and formal speech. Implies the listed items reinforce the same point. Often trails off sentence-finally.
