Summary/Abstract: Taking declarative sentences as the most suitable illustration, the author presents semantic and grammatical intertwining in the pattern of a compound sentence. He provides a classification of information carrying lexemes according to their function in a sentence, complementation, grammatical categorization and semantics. For the first time in Serbo-Croatistics a numerous group of declarative conjunctions has been established. Accordingly, numerous problems of correlation have been discussed as well. The novelty is the treatment of predicating units which are marginal declarative clauses.
