Disjunct (linguistics)




  • ''Honestly'', I didn't do it.

  • ''Fortunately for you'', I have it right here.

  • ''In my opinion'', the green one is better.


Sometimes, it may be difficult to distinguish between disjuncts and adjuncts as in the case of ''She sang beautifully in the shower'', where ''beautifully'' is ambiguous; does it refer to the manner in which she sang or the way I judge her singing?
