adjunct
의미: Something added or attached to another thing in a supplementary rather than essential capacity, or a person holding a temporary or auxiliary position within an institution.
Adjunct functions as both noun and adjective. In academia, an adjunct professor or lecturer holds a non-permanent, often part-time position — a usage that has become politically charged as universities increasingly rely on casualised labour. More broadly, it describes anything supplementary: an adjunct to a main building, therapy as an adjunct to medication. It collocates with 'professor,' 'therapy,' 'to,' and 'faculty.'
