Disjunct

/dɪsˈdʒʌŋkt/ adjective, noun

Definition

Separated or disconnected; in logic, one of two or more alternatives presented as options in a choice.

Etymology

From Latin disjunctus, past participle of disjungere (to separate), combining dis- (apart) + jungere (to join). The meaning evolved from simply 'separated' to a logical term for alternatives.

Kelly Says

In music and linguistics, 'disjunct' has a special meaning—it describes melodies that jump around instead of moving smoothly between notes, which is literally 'not joined' together.
