Hypotaxis is the human-made syntactic practice of organizing clauses or phrases through hierarchical subordination, where dependent elements are grammatically embedded within or attached to host clauses via subordinating markers (conjunctions, relative pronouns, participial forms, complementizers). Parameters: (1) hierarchical relationship between elements — a host and at least one dependent clause or phrase, (2) explicit subordinating markers establishing the dependency, (3) semantic asymmetry where the dependent element modifies or qualifies the host. Persistence mechanism: grammatical convention across languages, syntactic theory, and the explicit teaching of sentence structure in education.

    Definition properly carves hypotaxis with clear parameters (hierarchical clause structure, subordinating markers, embedded relationships) and a persistence mechanism (grammatical convention, syntactic teaching, stylistic analysis). Includes Law 6 trailer. Solid first definition.

    Definition carves well: states parameters (hierarchical subordination, subordinating markers, embedding), persistence mechanism (grammatical convention, syntactic practice). Law 4 satisfied.

    Def carves: organizing clauses via hierarchical subordination, parameters (dependent elements via subordinating markers), persistence (grammatical convention, teaching). Trailer present.

    Definition carves: hypotaxis as syntactic practice of organizing clauses through hierarchical subordination via subordinating markers. States parameters and persistence mechanism (grammatical convention, syntactic practice, teaching). Trailer present.
