Advanced Sentence Structures and Linguistic Analysis

Sentence Types and Structures

Coordinated Sentences

There are two propositions; both are simple propositions. They possess syntactic autonomy and are joined by a non-coordinating link. If a sentence has these characteristics, it is a coordinated sentence.

• Copulative: y, e
• Disjunctive: o, u
• Adversative:
  • Partial: but, again, yet, nevertheless
  • Total: but, rather
• Distributive: well... well, now... now, ya... ya, some... others...
• Explanatory: that is, indeed, for example...

Subordinate Sentences

There are two propositions, one of which (the first) can have autonomy, but the subject cannot. When taken out of context, the second proposition lacks syntactic autonomy because it depends on the verb of the first proposition. The second proposition is joined to the first by a subordinating nexus. If it has these characteristics, it is a sentence composed by subordination.

Juxtaposed Sentences

These are formed by two or more sentences without an explicit nexus between them. The relationship can be:

• Juxtaposed with a coordination relationship: Sentences that occur without connection, but you can add a non-coordinating link and maintain the sense.
• Juxtaposed with a subordinate relationship: Conjoined sentences where one is subordinate to another, allowing for the addition of a subordinating link.
