13.7 Summary
In this chapter, we examined the inter-clausal coherence in Bhojpuri. The

complement clauses in Bhojpuri are in the form of complement-taking PCU
(Perception-Cognition-Utterance) predicates that include propositional attitude

predicates, commentative predicates, knowledge acquision predicates and immediate
perception predicates; complement-taking modality predicates including modal

predicates, achievement predicates, phasal predicates and desiderative predicates;
complement-taking manipulation predicates that include permissive predicates and

causative predicates. The subordinate adverbial clauses in Bhojpuri are either marked
through the subordinating morphemes attached to the dependent clause or through the
special non-finite verb forms. Temporal adverbial clauses in Bhojpuri include

precedence, subsequence, subsequence cum instrument, simultaneity, point
coincidence, accompanying circumstance, terminal boundary, initial boundary and

intermediacy. Bhojpuri conditional adverbial clauses are irrealis, counter-fact,
conditionals with intermediate value and concessive conditionals. Bhojpuri also
