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 είτε - είτε or ή - ή “either - or”, both words are annotated CONJ.

Examples


Treebank Statistics (UD_Greek)

There are 28 CONJ lemmas (0%), 30 CONJ types (0%) and 2973 CONJ tokens (5%). Out of 11 observed tags, the rank of CONJ is: 8 in number of lemmas, 8 in number of types and 7 in number of tokens.
