From 14-17 we discover that negative conjoined structures do not seem to allow T- conjunction reduction since the result would be ungrammatical, e.g. 15 and 17. There are, however, cases other than negative structures where the rule is also blocked. Consider:

18- laciba majdi: lucbatan jayidatan wa laciba calyiun lucbatan mumillah

played Majdi game good and played Ali game boring

(Majdi played a good game and Ali played a boring game)

19-* laciba majdi: lucbatan jayidatan wa calyiun mumilla

played Majdi a good game and Ali boring

20- laciba majdi: lucbatan jayidatan wa calyiun lucbatan mumilla

played Majdi a good game and Ali boring game

(Majdi played a good game and Ali a boring game)
