Coordination is defined for many different categories; here is
|
|
a sample. The rules apply to <B>lists</B> of two or more elements,
|
|
and define two general patterns:

<UL>

<LI>ordinary conjunction: X,...X and X
|
|
<LI>distributed conjunction: both X,...,X and X
|
|
</UL>
|

|
|
<P>
|
|
<CODE>VP</CODE> conjunctions are not covered here, because their applicability
|
|
depends on language. Some special cases are defined in

The list constructors are derived from the list notation and therefore
|
|
not given explicitly. But here are their type signatures:
