Disjunctive

Adjective used in grammar to mean that what follows the particle (e.g., we in Hebrew) is not to be read as a continuation of the preceding phrase/clause, but is to be understood as an new independent clause. The opposite of a disjunction is, of course, a conjunction (e.g., and) which joins the two phrases/clauses together as two aspects of a single thought.
