Example of Disjunctive Sentences

The disjunctive sentences they are a type of coordinate sentence using a disjunctive conjunction to link two sentences.

The coordinated sentences They are the sentences that are made up of two independent sentences joined by a conjunction that works as a link between the two. Not all conjunctions allow two sentences to be coordinated; conjunctions that have this grammatical function are called coordinating conjunction. In addition to sentences, these types of conjunctions also join words or phrases.

Both disjunctive conjunctions that we have in Spanish to form disjunctive sentences are or Y or.

This type of conjunction joins two syntactic elements in a way that presents a alternation ratio between both; that is, it joins words or sentences and gives the idea that they are options that are excluded or that they are different alternatives. For example:

• We can go swimmingor go for a walk in the woods.
• ¿We are looking for Rosaorwe wait for you to return?
• ¿You bought what I asked fororyou forgot to do it?
• Stay calmoryou will cause some inconvenience.

As we see in these disjunctive sentences, the disjunctive conjunctions or Y or they function as a link between two sentences that can function independently. The relationship between the two sentences is one of disjunction: they are two options or alternatives that may or may not be excluded.

The conjunctions or Y or they have an identical function and meaning. The difference between the two responds only to a phonetic question. The conjunction or is exchanged for or in the cases in which it precedes a word that begins with the sound / or / to avoid a repetition of sounds, which we know as cacophony. For example: “listen ororgo "," remember ororlvidar "," love orordiar ”,“ include orormitir ”.

Orthographically, by convention the conjunction or when it is written between two digits. The reason it has been used in this way is to avoid confusion with the zero sign: “there were 2 ó 3 interesting places ”. However, it is no longer very common to accentuate the or. In all other cases this conjunction should never be accentuated.
