Abstract

The paper examines one grammatical mechanism for expressing modality in Anglo-American fiction and presents the linguistic concept of modality from the perspective of the English language's system of conditional sentences, which comprises factual, real, unreal, and mixed types. Using examples drawn from Anglo-American fiction, the paper examines the unique grammatical structure of each type of conditional sentences. As a result, the study addresses a wide range of topics related to the unique characteristics of the functional and semantic categories of modality in languages with various lexical, grammatical, and semantic categories, offering fresh theoretical insights into language and serving as a foundation for future investigations into the field of English language comparative linguistics.
