Disciplinary? meaning...
Hi
In Portuguese we use the word "discipina" referring to the different subjects we may study in school, like mathematics, science, history, etc.
It can also mean imposing rules and a proper way to act.
In the dictionnary I find thes meanings to the English word “discipline”.
But how aboout the adjective "disciplinary"?
Is it related to the 1st or the 2nd meaning?
Thanks!
