Having in mind that ordinal sum construction of triangular norms (triangular conorms) may not work on bounded lattices, in general, we propose a modification of ordinal sums of t-norms (t-conorms) resulting to a t-norm (t-conorm) on an arbitrary bounded lattice. In particular, our method can be applied to define connectives for fuzzy sets type 2, interval-valued fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, etc. Some illustrative examples are added, considering the interval lattice L([0, 1]), the intuitionistic lattice LI, and the diamond lattice.
