More about the book
The book provides a detailed analysis of modality in Modern Chinese, focusing on its types and functions within clauses. It introduces modalization, which assesses proposition probability, and modulation, which evaluates obligation, inclination, and ability. Grounded in Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), it categorizes modalities and explores the systems of Orientations that differentiate subjective and objective modalities. The research highlights the significance of modality as an interpersonal clause system and its role in the textual structure of Chinese.
