What is a "disjunct"?

A disjunct is a type of adverb that expresses the speaker's or writer's attitude toward the content of the sentence or comments on how the action is performed. Disjuncts are not essential to the grammatical structure of the sentence and typically modify the entire statement rather than a specific word. Common examples include words or phrases like "frankly," "honestly," and "unfortunately." For instance, in the sentence "Unfortunately, it rained on the parade," the disjunct "unfortunately" indicates the speaker's negative attitude toward the situation. Understanding disjuncts is important for recognizing how speakers convey their opinions about what they are discussing.
