ADJUNCT, DISJUNCT, CONJUNCT, SUBJUNCT. What´s the difference? Can you give me some examples?
This is referring to grammatical functions of adverbials-Thanks Erik- I know the meaning of the words, i just can´t figure out what´s the difference in the functions of the adverbials.

Your question is really about the prefixes.
"AD-" = additional; extra; not main
"DIS-" = away from; opposite
"CON-" = together; with
"SUB-" = underneath; below; less than
The root "junct" means "to join".
So:
ad + junct = joined as an extra part, not part of the main
dis + junct = no longer joined; the opposite of what was joined
con + junct = joined with something else
sub + junct = joined below, underneath or as less than something else
