The correlation is established between two comparatives, which are introduced by two explicit lexical items čem – tem that correspond to the instrumental case of čto ‘what/that’ and to ‘that’. We demonstrate that existing analyses, which treat the element čem in terms of relative pronoun or conjunction, are not sufficient and that the relative nature of čem is questionable. We also argue that the relationship between the two correlated parts cannot be reduced to pure coordination or subordination. Some alternatives are proposed.Show less >
