Latin Coordination Morphemes #

@cite{haspelmath-2007}

Latin has a rich coordination system with both free and bound forms. The J/MU decomposition (@cite{mitrovic-sauerland-2014}, @cite{mitrovic-sauerland-2016}) maps cleanly:

The et...et pattern ("both...and") and neque...neque pattern are bisyndetic uses of J particles.

Connection to Typology.lean: Phenomena.Coordination.Typology.latin encodes the structural patterns (a_co_b, a_b'co, co'a_b'co).

                et — primary conjunction, J particle. Free, prepositive. "Caesar et Brutus" = "Caesar and Brutus". Also used correlatively: "et A et B" = "both A and B".

                Equations
                • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
                Instances For

                  -que — enclitic conjunction, MU particle. Bound, postpositive. "senatus populusque" = "senate and people". Historically connected to the additive/inclusive particle.

                  Equations
                  • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
                  Instances For

                    atque / ac — emphatic conjunction, J variant. ac before consonants, atque before vowels. "atque" < *ad-que (lit. "and to that").

                    Equations
                    • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
                    Instances For

                      neque / nec — negative coordination. "neque A neque B" = "neither A nor B". Morphologically ne + -que (negation + MU enclitic).

                      Equations
                      • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
                      Instances For

                        aut — exclusive/strong disjunction. "aut A aut B" = "either A or B (but not both)".

                        • One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
                        Instances For

                          vel — inclusive/weak disjunction. "vel A vel B" = "A or B (or both)".

                            sed — adversative conjunction. "non A sed B" = "not A but B".

                                Latin has exactly one bound morpheme: -que.

                                The bound morpheme is the MU particle -que.

                                Latin has correlative uses of J, disjunction, and negative coordination.
