Noun. 1. coordinating conjunction-the coordination by conjunction of linguistic units of the same status. conjunction-the grammatical relation between linguistic units (words or phrases or clauses) that are connected by a conjunction.
In grammar, a conjunction (abbreviated CONJ or CNJ) is a part of speech that connects words, sentences, phrases, or clauses. A discourse connective is a conjunction joining sentences. This definition may overlap with that of other parts of speech, so what constitutes a conjunction must be defined for each language.
