2.1 Combinatory Categorial Grammar
</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph position="0"> Steedman (198.5; 1989; 1990), working in the framework of Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG), presents what is probably the most adequate analysis of non-constituent coordination to date. As noted by Steedman and discussed by Oehrle (1990), the addition of the rule of function composition to the inventory of syntactic rules in Categorial Grammar enables the formation of constituents with right-peripheral gaps, providing a basis for a clean treatment of cases of right node raising as exemplified by sentence (1). Such examples are handled by a coordination schema which allows like categories to be conjoined, shown in (2).</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph position="1"> (2) Coordination: X CONJ X ~-.- X This schema gives rise to various actual rules whose semantics depends on the number of arguments that the shared material takes. For the cases of RNR considered here, the rule has the form shown in (3).</Paragraph>
