## Connectives

|
|
Connectives exist to link noun phrases and verbs together into larger

noun phrases and verbs. They can also be used to link together sentences. There
|
|
are four simple connectives: `fa` (OR), `fe` (AND), `fi` (connective question),
|
|
`fo` (if-and-only-if) and `fu` (whether-or-not).
|
|
|
|
