Definition
a construction in which two events are construed as part of a complex figure information packaging. Example: in Jerry played the guitar and Billy was on drums, Jerry playing guitar and Billy being on drums are combined in a coordinate clause construction that construes the two events as part of a complex whole. Deranked coordinate clause constructions are also called clause chaining, medial verb constructions, or cosubordination. (Section 15.2.1)
