Et Sans

"Et Sans" is a French phrase meaning "and without." It functions as a conjunction followed by a preposition, indicating the addition of a subsequent element that lacks something previously mentioned or implied. The phrase is often used in literary contexts, descriptions, or artistic expressions to convey a sense of incompleteness, deprivation, or negation in conjunction with a preceding statement.
