Common hepatic duct Common hepatic duct The common hepatic duct is the part of the biliary tract formed by the convergence of the right hepatic duct (which drains bile from the right functional lobe of the liver) and the left hepatic duct (which drains bile from the left functional lobe of the liver). The common hepatic duct then joins the cystic duct coming from the gallbladder to form the common bile duct. The duct is usually 6–8 cm length. The hepatic duct is part of the biliary tract that transports secretions from the liver into the intestines. It carries more volume in people

Determiners with unvalued φ-features must find a complement with a valued φ-feature to meet semantic comprehension. In the diagrams below, the determiner is "the", and its complement is either the noun phrase "poor people" or the nominalized adjective "poor". As the frequency of nominalized adjective use decreased, the frequency of structures using the prop-word "one" increased (phrases such as "the large"
