Abstract
Genetic kinship of particles and conjunctions
 The paper attempts to explain the formal identity between those units which operate both in the class of conjunctions, and in the class of particles. To this purpose, the authors set in motion a logical apparatus that interpretes the identity between conclusive units; they choose, out of many possibilities, the resultative and the conclusive relation. The authors believe that the kinship of the two classes, particles and conjunctions, is the effect of operation of two mechanisms: 1. particles limit the scope of connectivity to introducing a sentence-shaped rheme, and become conjunctions proper (albowiem ‘because’, oraz ‘and’, bo ‘cause’, ale ‘but’); 2. particles connect to conjunctions, and take over their function (bowiem, albowiem ‘because’).
