The present study is concerned with Ibn Jinni's opinion on syndetic coordination from two perspectives: theorizing, and grammatical interpretation.

The study adopts a descriptive approach.

It examines deletion in the syndetic coordination according to Ibn Jinni in terms of theorizing and grammatical interpretation; it also deals with the ranking in the syndetic coordination in terms of theorizing and grammatical interpretation and its effect on anastrophe; it studies Ibn Jinni's position on the coordination with a pronoun in the nominative case without emphasis and on the coordination with a pronoun in the genitive case without repeating the modifier.

All these topics are approached from two perspectives: theorizing and interpretation.

Among the most important conclusions arrived at by the study is that Ibn Jinni manages to employ grammatical interpretation to reconcile between linguistic structures and the rule in the chapter of syndetic coordination; this is achieved through approaching the rule so as to fit the linguistic structures that seem to be irregular or deviant or through interpreting structures in a way that enable them to conform to the rule.

Ibn Jinni makes use of a number of ideas and rules to explain deletion in the chapter of coordination; he uses the idea of expansion of linguistic usage with the deletion of conjunctive particles; he uses also the idea of substitution to explain the deletion of the coordinated element that comes after the conjunctive particle; the justification of deletion is the existence of an evidence referring to the deleted element.

Sometimes, Ibn Jinni's interpretation is based on investigating the circumstances of the speaker and the resulted change of structure as shown in anastrophe; this occurs depending on the psychological meanings taking place and the general context.

In addition, he employs the idea of putting the specific in place of the general to explain some structures where the rank and the origin are different.

Keywords: coordination, syndetic, deletion, rank, proportionality.
