Part of a compound verb, there is no deletion
(Ref. 3.5.3.1.3.).
|
Sequences, which are not topic chains, are
subordinated for time specification by adding the appropriate adverbial.
|
Thus given the sentences
|
|
|
the generation of a third structure needs the
insertion of an adverb /hay gõ/
`before’
|
|
|
|
|
The lower NP, though identical, is not deleted
because it is not nominative. Deletion, however,would have been possible if the higher NP were
dative.

Coordination
|
Coordination, as a principle for
generation of sentences, is used only when a sequence of sentences have a
common verb complex but different nominative NPs and invariably involves
deletion of one of the nominals in the sentence, the coordination takes two
forms.

|
Conjunction :
|
S ® S1
+ S2
|
| Given the sentences which have a common verb
complex and distinct non-identical nominative NPs as seen in the |
two sentences
|
|
(319) |
/r  1
khāge2/ |
| |
Sun-Nom reach-Mov |
| |
`Sun1 reached2’
|
|
(320) |
/tamyā1 khge2/ |
| |
tiger-Nom reach-Mov |
| |
`the tiger1
reached2’
|
|
we can generate a coordinate
structure like (322) wherein, one of the verb complexes is deleted and each
of the nominative NPs takes a marker /mu/ roughly meaning `also’.
