What is the syntax of you will go home and he home?

The sentence "You will go home and he home" is grammatically incorrect. Here's why:

* Missing Verb: The second part of the sentence lacks a verb. It should be "You will go home and he will go home" or "You will go home and he will go home too".

Correct Syntax:

* You will go home, and he will go home too.

* You will go home, and so will he.

Explanation:

* "You will go home, and he will go home too" uses a parallel structure with both parts of the sentence having the same verb ("will go").

* "You will go home, and so will he" uses a more concise form, employing the phrase "so will he" to avoid repetition.

Important Note: The phrase "He home" is ungrammatical in English.
