    Note

    A linking adverb rather than an ordinary one: it joins a new sentence to the one before it instead of modifying a verb. It typically opens its sentence and is set off by a comma, as when David Van Tassel and Lee DeHaan's "Wild Plants to the Rescue" (2013) stacks a second reason on a first. Keep it apart from in addition to, which takes a noun (in addition to the fee) and works as a preposition.
