Haspelmath (2007): Coordination #

Haspelmath's chapter classifies coordinate constructions by where their coordinators go. A binary pattern, (17), is the pair of the markings of the two coordinands. The two diachronic sources of conjunction, §1.2, a comitative modifier 'A with B' and an additive focus particle 'A, also B', yield patterns from the order of their parts, and no source whose modifier order and adposition order are harmonic yields co-A B, the pattern no language attests. Table 1.1 derives the patterns of multiple coordination from the binary one.

The chapter's examples are the rows of Data/Examples/Haspelmath2007.json. Each construction is analysed by its coordinators, one coordinator or a correlative pair. Of the binary examples, the chapter calls emphatic exactly the correlative ones, and the bisyndetic ones that are not correlative are postpositive, §1.3 and §2.1. The file also classifies the correlatives of (45) by their forms and states Payne's implicational sequence of coordinand types, §3, with the counterexample from Tinrin the chapter records.

Binary patterns, (17) #

A coordinand is bare or carries a prepositive coordinator, co-A, or a postpositive one, A-co.

      A binary pattern, (17), is the pair of the markings of the two coordinands, so that A co-B is (.bare, .pre) and A-co B-co is (.post, .post).

      Equations
      Instances For

        The syndesis of a pattern is its number of coordinators, none in asyndetic, one in monosyndetic and two in bisyndetic coordination, §1.

          Monosyndetic coordination is universally asymmetric, §1.2, with one coordinand bare.

          Diachronic sources, §1.2 #

          A conjunctive coordinator comes from a comitative modifier 'A with B', given by the side of B its adposition goes on and the side of the noun the modifier goes on, or from an additive focus particle 'A, also B', given by the side of B it goes on, §1.2 and §5.1.

              The binary pattern of a source construction, §1.2. The comitative phrase is the first coordinand when modifiers precede the noun and the second when they follow it, marked on the side of its adposition, and the focus particle marks the second conjunct on its own side, so that 'A, B too' gives A B-co and 'A, also B' gives A co-B.

              Equations
              Instances For

                A comitative source is harmonic when modifiers precede the noun in a language with postpositions or follow it in one with prepositions, the orders that go together [Gre63] [Dry92]; a focus particle is not a modifier.

                  The only source with the pattern co-A B is a prepositional comitative phrase before its noun.

                  No harmonic source has the pattern co-A B, which §1.2 offers as the explanation of its absence from [Sta00]'s sample of 260 languages.

                  The full n-ary pattern of a binary one, §1.4. A bisyndetic pattern of one shape marks every coordinand, and a monosyndetic pattern leaves bare the coordinand bare in the binary construction and marks every other one as its marked coordinand is marked; the mixed patterns have no full pattern in the chapter.

                              Every pattern label of the rows is one of (17).

                              The pattern co-A B is absent from the chapter's examples, as from Stassen's sample.

                              Prepositive bisyndesis occurs only as emphatic coordination, §1.3 after [Sta00].

                              The comitative-sourced coordinators of the rows have the patterns of a harmonic comitative source, A co-B and A-co B, except Tauya -sou, (85b), doubled on both conjuncts as §5.1 describes, and Amele ca, (81), and Huallaga Quechua -wan, (86), postpositive on the second conjunct, A B-co, the pattern of a postpositional comitative after its noun.

                              The coordinators of the constructions #

                              A construction has one coordinator, on each coordinand its pattern marks, or a pair of correlative coordinators.

                                            The attestations are the rows with a coordinator, in order.

                                            The patterns agree with the morphology of the coordinators, since a coordinator that attaches on a side of its host marks its coordinand on that side.

                                            The chapter presents a binary coordination as emphatic exactly when its coordinators are correlative, §2.1.

                                            Normal bisyndesis is postpositive with one coordinator, §2.1 and §1.3. A construction whose coordinators are not correlative and mark both coordinands marks them after them, so that by emphatic_iff_correlative prepositive bisyndesis is emphatic, as [Sta00] finds.

                                            The comitative-sourced coordinators with Fragment entries, Hausa dà and Lango kèdè, are still the comitative prepositions of their languages.

                                            Classical Tibetan -daŋ and Turkish -le, which come from a former case-marker, (41), are still comitative markers, the accompaniment role particle and the comitative postposition.

                                            A pair of correlative coordinators, (45), has both identical to the single coordinator, only its second identical to it, its two identical to each other but not to it, or all three different.
