what does it mean when someone says "proved in the conjunctive"?
The sentence being referenced is an and/or statement. The part that says OR has been proven. The AND has not. So what is correct? to say that the statement has been proven in the conjunctive, or is it disjunctive?
It sounds confusing, so I'll give the full example.
The man was convicted of transporting and/or selling drugs.
He was found to be transporting, but not selling. Therefore, the "AND" did not apply, only the "OR." so was it proved in the conjunctive or disjunctive? Thanks, English majors or whoever can answer!!
