18. Coordination and correlatives
-
Cristina Sánchez López
Abstract
This chapter discusses coordination and correlatives in Romance languages, distinguishing between copulative, disjunctive and adversative coordination. The chapter begins by presenting each of these types of coordination, providing relevant definitions and introducing and characterizing the main coordination devices in Romance languages. In these sections, the terminological and conceptual boundaries between types of coordination are made explicit. The chapter goes on to discuss some fundamental formal and semantic aspects of coordination. Finally, some additional remarks about the limits of coordination are offered, with a focus on the relationship between correlatives and other parallel structures.
