CoRoT ID 105733033 is an excellent example of hybrid pulsators as it shows g- and p-modes with almost similar amplitudes in two clearly distinct frequency domains. Classical Fourier analysis allows the dectection of frequencies with an amplitude as small as 0.1 mmag up to 50c/d. The frequency spectrum of CoRoT ID 105733033 clearly consists of two distinct ranges, which are typical of gamma Doradus and delta Scuti pulsation. Focus was placed on the identification of linear combinations and frequencies due to the coupling between gamma Doradus and delta Scuti modes. We detect 198 gamma Doradus type frequencies in the range [0.25;4]c/d, of which 180 are not combination frequencies, and 24 of them are separated by a constant period-interval Delta P=0.03074d. According to the asymptotic theory, these 24 frequencies correspond to a series of g-modes of the same ell-degree and different radial orders n. We also detect 246 delta Scuti type frequencies in the range [10.1;63.4]c/d. The dominant frequency F=12.6759c/d was identified as the fundamental radial mode. Our most noteworthy result is that all the main gamma Doradus frequencies f_i are also detected in the delta Scuti domain as F +- f_i with four times smaller amplitudes. Once these frequencies were removed, only 59 can be considered as individual delta Scuti frequencies. A coupling between g- and p-modes is proposed to be a tool for detecting g-modes in the Sun, but this coupling has never yet been observed. Our present study may be valuable input to theoretical studies, addressing the mutual influence of g- and p-mode cavities and the deviation from classical theory. Furthermore, we identify a sequence of g-modes belonging to the same ell but with consecutive orders n.
