An '''AND node''' is a [[node (in neurocognitive linguistics)|node]] in [[compact relational network notation|compact notation]]. It is represented by an isosceles triangle about half as tall as it is wide, from which [[line|lines]] are drawn to connect with other nodes. Out of the apex of the triangle, which can be drawn pointing upward or downward, comes one line; this is the node's ''singular side''. Out of the flat, longest side -- the ''plural side'' of the node -- come two or more lines; the lines are thus shown to be in a conjunctive relationship. The AND node shows combinations as opposed to alternations, which are shown by the [[OR node]].
AND nodes have two principal types:

==== Ordered AND ====

The lines on the plural side are to be read in sequence, left to right. This type of AND shows the relationship of concatenation. [[Image:Orderand.jpg]]
In this example, downward activation from A goes to B ''and later'' to C. Upward activation from B ''and later'' from C goes to A.

==== Unordered AND ====

A different type of combination in which the components are simultaneous. The multiple lines connect to the same point on the plural side of the triangle.

In this example, downward activation travels through the line on the singular side, through the node, then down both lines on the plural side simultaneously. Upward activation travels up both plural-side lines simultaneously, then through the node and up the singular-side line.

 === In Compact Notation ===
-An AND is represented by an isosceles triangle about half as tall as it is wide, with [[line|lines]] connecting to other nodes.  The node can be oriented with the apex at top ("downward AND") or bottom ("upward AND"). One line connects to the apex and two or more lines to the opposite (long) side; those two or more lines represent a conjunctive relationship.  The AND node shows combinations as opposed to alternations, which are shown by the [[OR node]].

One line connects to the apex and two or more lines to the opposite (long) side; those two or more lines represent a conjunctive relationship.  The AND node shows combinations as opposed to alternations, which are shown by the [[OR node]]. The ''downward AND'' accounts for composite [[realization]]--situations in which a function or meaning is represented by multiple units of expression occurring together, e.g., "news-paper". An ''upward AND'' represents portmanteau realization, the situation in which an item of expression represents a combination of higher-level units, as "went" realizes "go" and "PAST".
