    An adjunct is a part of a sentence that modifies the verb to convey information about time, manner, place, frequency or degree. Adjuncts provide optional context about how, when or where something occurred, as seen in the examples "He ate his meal quickly", "David gave blood last week", and "Susan went to school in New York". Adjuncts are nonessential elements that can be removed without making the core sentence ungrammatical.

    Definition: An adjunct is part of a Sentence and modifies the Verb to show time, manner, place, frequency and degree.

    Certain parts of a sentence may convey information about how, when, or where something happened: Examples:

    He ate his meal quickly (how) David gave blood last week (when) Susan went to school in New York (where)

    The highlighted constituents here are ADJUNCTS. From a syntactic point of view, Adjuncts are optional elements, since their omission still leaves a complete sentence: Examples:

    He ate his meal quickly ~He ate his meal David gave blood last week ~David gave blood Susan went to school in New York ~Susan went to school
