This study aims to unify and streamline the existing categorial coordinations depending on outward configuration. First, typical syntactic studies point out that there are identical, func-grammatical and c-selected scopes: identical Likes means the simple outward oneness, func-grammatical and c-selected, conjuncts’ parallelism from head v. Next, sem-pragmatic Likes is situational apart from syntactic constraints, making it fall into a common topic. Finally, this paper insists that sem-pragmatics covers syntax given the former underspecifies the latter. It concludes that sem-pragmatic Likes is most likely to be representative of categorial coordinations, implying that syntactic embeddings are inherent behind.
