CONJ: coordinating conjunction
A coordinating conjunction is a word that links words or larger constituents without syntactically subordinating one to the other and expresses a semantic relationship between them.
For subordinating conjunctions, see SCONJ.
In correlative (paired) coordinating conjuctions such as sekä - että
“both - and” and joko - tai “either - or”, both words are annotated
CONJ (see also cc:preconj).
Examples
- [fi] ja “and”, tai “or”, mutta “but”
- [fi] sekä koirat että kissat “both dogs and cats”
