New page

The elements combined in [[coordination]] are called '''coordinands'''.

===Example===
In the coordinated phrase ''the moon and the sun'', the two coordinands are ''the moon'' and ''the sun''.

===Synonyms===
*[[term (of coordination)]]
*[[member (of coordination)]] (e.g. Bloomfield 1933:195)
*[[coordinated unit]]

===Origin===

The term coordinand was apparently coined by [[R.M.W. Dixon]] and used, for instance, in his grammar of Fijian (Dixon 1988:161). It was taken up by Haspelmath (2004) and Haspelmath (2007).

:::*"'''Coordinand''': This term is introduced in the present chapter for the units that are combined in a coordinate construction (cf. Dixon 1988:161, where I have found this term used in the same sense). There is no traditional term for this concept. Dik (1968) uses the term ''term (of a coordination)''. Sometimes the term ''conjunct'' is used as a synonym of ''coordinand'' (just as ''conjunction'' is sometimes used as a synonym of ''coordination''), but this is confusing and should be avoided." (Haspelmath 2007:50)
