What is conjunction?
« on: 25/08/2025 16:19:54 »

conjunction (n.)



https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=conjuntion

/conjunction without "c"

/the 3rd paragraph
Grammatical sense of "connective particle

serving to unite clauses of a sentence

or coordinate words in a clause or sentence"

(late 14c.) was in Latin,

a loan-translation of Greek syndesmos.



=

Sometimes the wrong question gives more information.



= = =

Prepositions are about places.
/divider divides space

-

But

conjunctions

are something different.



 = = =

One may think of

"or"

as

"Equivalence".


-


One may think of

"and"

as

"Set'.


-

...


= = =   = = =   = = =

Actually,

one could not care less.

-

One way or another

one is mortal.
