D. Compound Sentences
If a sentence involves two (or more) simple sentences (i.e., clauses) and these
sentences are conjoined by means of coordinate conjunctions such as ga 'but'
or continuative forms of verbs, adjectives or the copula such as Vte, Adj.te and
Cop.te to mean 'and,' the whole is called a "compound sentence." The clauses
in a compound sentence are connected through the AND-relation or the BUT-
relation. (3 1) provides examples.

b. Ahha77 >xWB%-i?aiSr@,I&B-@tsbl,

When the clauses in a compound sentence have an element in common (e.g.,
the subject, the direct object, the verbal), the element usually appears only
once. For example, in (28a-c) the subjects are shared and in (31b) the direct
object is shared. (32) provides an example of a shared verbal.
