disjunctive
Tending toward separation
Disjunctive describes things that separate, disconnect, or present alternatives.
In grammar, a disjunctive conjunction like "or" offers choices rather than joining: Either we leave now or we miss the train.
In logic, a disjunctive proposition is true if at least one of its parts is true.
More broadly, disjunctive describes anything characterized by sharp breaks or alternatives rather than smooth connection.
