The mood of Completion
has three attendant sub senses- a. completion with
a sense of unexpectedness . b. completion with a sense
of surprise and c. completion with a sense of accomplishment.
The three sub senses have complementary or mutually
exclusive occurrence.
a.
The subsense
of unexpectedness
This
sub sense of unexpectedness of action, unlike the
mood of unexpected, surprising action, typically acts
as a cumber to some other projected, but typically
not realized, action and hence is very felicitous
in a disjunctive sentence i.e., a sentence beginning
(with) and ‘but’
