Pairing stimulus elements is explained in the "How to display stimulus pairs" topic in the Inquisit documentation's how-to section. While the example there uses only <text> elements, it works the same for any combination of different types of stimulus elements (e.g. <picture> and <text>, <picture> and <sound>, <text> and <video> etc.).
Suppose you have a <text> element with two items (cat, dog) and a <video> element with two corresponding items. To pair and display them together in a <trial>, you do
<text mytext> / items = textitems / select = noreplace </text>
<item textitems> / 1 = "Cat" / 2 = "Dog" </item>
<video myvideo> / items = videoitems / select = text.mytext,currentindex </video>
<item videoitems> / 1 = "Meow.mp3" / 2 = "Woof.mp3" </item>
<trial mytrial> / stimulusframes = [1=mytext, myvideo] / validresponse = (" ") </trial>
<block myblock> / trials = [1-2 = mytrial] </block>
The word "Cat" will be presented together with "Meow.mp3", the word "Dog" together with "Woof.mp3". You can extend that to as many items as you need.
Beyond that I would recommend giving the tutorials contained in the documentation a go (if you have not already done so). Those will give you a good overview of the most important syntax constructs and setting up basic scripts.
