Abstract

The study's objective is to examine the practical concerns associated with applying the subjective-evaluative modality based on critical articles from the English-language media. Fragments of texts with constructions with a subjectively evaluative modality from the English periodicals The Independent, The Guardian, The Times, and The Telegraph from 2019–2020 served as the study's source material. English text analysis is one of the research methods. It has been established what the most typical ways are to express the subjective-evaluative modality for analytical articles in English newspapers and magazines. Based on the analysis, the author concludes that the rationale and conclusions, as well as the author's knowledge of the situation, his preferences, and the manner in which he chooses to communicate information to the reader (personal assessment, public assessment, or objective presentation and assessment), all influence the means by which the subjective-evaluative modality is expressed in analytical articles published in the English media.
