Particular ways of combining parts of the sentence. Asyndeton, polysyndeton, gap-sentence link (GSL).

Asyndeton is deliberate omission of conjunctions; connection between parts of a sentence or between sentences without any formal sign becomes a stylistic device if there is a deliberate omission of the connective where it is generally expected to be according to the norms of the literary language; is a connection between parts of a sentence or between sentences without any formal sign; is a deliberate omission of conjunctions and connectives; the function of Asyndeton is to create the effect of terse, energetic, active prose. E.g.: Veni, vidi, vici; “I came, I saw, I conquered“.

Polysyndeton is repeated use of conjunctions; is a stylistic device of connecting sentences, or phrases, or syntagms, or words by using connectives (mostly conjunctions and prepositions) before each component part; the function of polysyndeton is to strengthen the idea of equal logical (emotive) importance of connected sentences. E.g.: “The heaviest rain, and snow, and hail, and sleet, could boast of the advantage over him in only one respect.”

Gap-sentence link (GSL) presents two utterances where the second is brought into the focus of the reader's attention; represents author’s subjective interpretation of the links between parts of an utterance. E.g.: "She and that fellow ought to be the sufferers, and they were in Italy." - 'Those who ought to suffer were enjoying themselves in Italy
(where well-to-do English people go for holidays).' GSL as a stylistic device is based on the peculiarities of the spoken language and is therefore most frequently used in represented speech; aims at stirring up in the reader's mind the
suppositions, associations and conditions under which the sentence uttered can really exist. GSL is a way of connecting two sentences seemingly
unconnected and leaving it to the reader's perspicacity to grasp the idea
implied, but not worded; is deeply rooted not only in writing but also in the norms of the spoken language.
