In the so-called pseudocoordination two verbs show congruence as in normal coordination while referring to a single event. This article deals with the syntactic status of the pseudocoordination in Low German by means of an empirical survey. According to the results of the survey, most aspectual verbs are accepted as first verb, but the absentive verb and the cessative verb are not accepted. Moreover, in this construction the object cannot be moved leftward, which is possible in Swedish pseudocoordination. To explain its syntactic behaviour, this article hypothesizes that the pseudocoordination in Low German does not involve complementation and that aspectual verbs in Low German can stand independently.
