How To Use syndetic In A Sentence

  • Instead, the asyndetic form of these texts promotes the opacity and disorientation of modularity.
  • Coordinating conjunctions are mainly used in compound syndetic sentences to link (coordinate) two or more independent ideas.
  • In the following exchange, note the use of simple clauses and sentence fragments joined by syndetic or asyndetic co-ordination.
  • Sometimes an asyndetic list is useful for the strong and direct climactic effect it has, much more emphatic than if a final conjunction were used.
  • On this count, Edmund Miller remarked that Prynne's use of the device of asyndetic listing confers ‘a breathless urgency to Prynne's poetry that is exactly appropriate to his theme.’
  • This is syndetic coordination, since a coordinating conjunction is present.
  • My guess was that he understood ‘inside out’ as ‘both inside and out’ (asyndetic conjunction) instead of as ‘having the inside out’, and simply restored the conjunction.
