The adjective. Types of adj. Degrees of comparison

Types of composite sentences: Acc. to the type of connection of clauses we can distinguish betw. complex &compound sentences. In compound sent-s the type of connection of clauses is coordination (i.e. syntactically the clauses are of equal rank). In complex sent-s the type of connection of clauses is subordination & clauses are of unequal rank (principal and subordinate).
The means of combining clauses: syndetic & asyndetic.
Syndetic => conj-s, relative pronouns (who, which), relative adv-s (where, how, when, why), phrases (as long as, in order that).
If asyndetically => there are no connectives betw. the clauses. Some grammarians say, “the zero connector”. Поспелов believes that on a higher level of classif-n all composite sent-s should be divided into syndetic & asyndetic & on the lower level syndetic composite sentences only should be divided into composite & complex.
Asyndetic Compound Sentences:
In a.c.s. coordinators are absent. Two or more clauses can be made into one s. without a coordinator being used. The result is a.c.s. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it. In writing, asyndetically joined coordinate clauses are separated by a semicolon (;), colon (:) or a dash (-).
Syndetic compound sentences:
In s.c.c. the type of coordination is expressed explicitly by means of coordinators, coordinating conjunctions and, but, for, so that The lights went out, the curtain went up and the show began. The peculiarity of and and or is that they can link more than two clauses. Coordinators can be divided into one-member, or simple (and, but) and multi-member (either…or).
37. Types of adverbial modifiers.
The adverbial modifier (or the adverbial) is a secondary part of the sentence which modifies another part of the sentence expressed either by a verb (in a finite or non-finite form), or an adjective, or a stative, or an adverb.
In case it modifies a verb the adverbial characterizes the action or process expressed by tlie verb and denotes its quality, quantity, or the whole situation.
