The commentary distinguishes five main combinations by premise type:
1. Two connected conditionals.
2. Two disjunctions.
3. A categorical and a connected conditional.
4. A categorical and a disjunction.
5. A connected conditional and a disjunction.
The first uses chains or relations of implication; the second requires care with alternatives. Mixed forms require a bridge between different propositional structures. Classifying the premises does not by itself establish a valid conclusion.
