Asyndeton (UK: / æ ˈ s ɪ n d ɪ t ən, ə-/, US: / ə ˈ s ɪ n d ə t ɒ n, ˌ eɪ-/; [1] [2] from the Greek: ἀσύνδετον, "unconnected", sometimes called asyndetism) is a literary scheme in which one or several conjunctions are deliberately omitted from a series of related clauses.
The coordinator usually serves to link the conjuncts and indicate the presence of a coordinate structure. Depending on the number of coordinators used, coordinate structures can be classified as syndetic, asyndetic, or polysyndetic. Different types of coordinators are also categorised differently.

Polysyndeton (from Ancient Greek πολύ poly "many" and συνδετόν syndeton "bound together with") [1] is the deliberate insertion of conjunctions into a sentence for the purpose of "slow[ing] up the rhythm of the prose" so as to produce "an impressively solemn note."
Ahnentafel, also known as the Eytzinger Method, Sosa Method, and Sosa-Stradonitz Method, allows for the numbering of ancestors beginning with a descendant.This system allows one to derive an ancestor's number without compiling the complete list, and allows one to derive an ancestor's relationship based on their number.
