In VI–XI six types of asyndeton have been examined that are marked by a grammatical (usually morphological) feature of both or one of the terms. The diversity of the types, and particularly the variations in their distributions, are already enough to make it clear that there is no point in trying to come up with a single adjective or phrase that might characterise asyndeton bimembre (‘sacral’, ‘tragic’, ‘reflecting the ancient carmen’, ‘expressing rapidity’, etc). The different types vary particularly in their frequency across genres, literary and non-literary.
