Good morning Mike!So does this mean when I get an "extra" attack as a fighter, the "extra" attack does not get my ability modifier added to it without two-weapon fighting?

The two-weapon fighting rule on page 195 of the "Player's Handbook" applies only to the bonus attack given by that rule.
Meaning: the rule has no effect on other situations, such as the Extra Attack feature, where you can use different weapons for different attacks. #DnD https://t.co/rqYVC9hSY9

The simplest way to fight with more than one weapon is the Extra Attack feature. No fuss: attack as normal with each weapon.
The two-weapon fighting rule on page 195 of the "Player's Handbook" is a way to squeeze out an additional, weaker attack starting at 1st level. #DnD
