Per-language typological substrate for coordination across three frameworks:

  1. @cite{haspelmath-2007} structural typology: syndesis (asyndetic / monosyndetic / bisyndetic), coordinator position, structural patterns, and diachronic source (comitative vs additive focus particle).
  2. @cite{stassen-2000} AND/WITH typology: derived from WALS Ch 63 (lexical identity of "and" and "with").
  3. WALS Ch 56/63/64: conjunction-quantifier relation, NP conjunction, nominal-vs-verbal conjunction.

Mirrors the Linglib/Typology/{Possession,Negation,Question,Comparison}.lean substrate-extension pattern. Fragment-importable; cross-linguistic theorems live in Studies/Haspelmath2007.lean (structural typology + 19-language sample) and Studies/Stassen2000.lean (AND/WITH typology + 15-language WALS sample).

What lives here #

                  @cite{stassen-2000} AND/WITH classification of languages. AND-languages have structurally distinct coordinate and comitative strategies. WITH-languages use comitative encoding as the only strategy for NP conjunction (lexical identity of "and" and "with").
