Various conjunctions with temporal or conditional meaning are used to link clauses. There is no coordinating conjunction, but main clauses can be coordinated with the enclitic "-ha", which is attached to the first word of the following clause. In narratives, clauses are linked by using the prosecutive conjunctions: "a-" before the first word of the following clause means 'and then', and "pā", can be an independent conjunction at the start of a clause and the enclitic "-pa" indicates contrast or a change of theme.
