Usage
The verb "overlap" to mean to coincide, is it only used when only two things coincide? I am a bit confused since I have only heard this verb used when two things coincide. Would it be correct to say:
In this teaching strategy that I am using different instructional focus overlap (they are targeted by using said teaching strategy) reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
So can more than two things overlap? Please let me know.
