Definition

a type of coordinate construction typically equated with coordination by 'and', representing some sort of grouping together in the relevant context. Conjunctive coordination is prototypically associated with an additive relation between the two (or more) entities, but often also may express a consecutive relation. Example: The robins drank water and the juncos ate fennel seeds is an instance of conjunctive coordination with an additive relation. (Section 15.2.1)
