Modality from a Japanese Perspective

Abstract

The grammatical category ‘modality’ has been one of the most popular topics dealt with in grammatical research in Japan. Since the 1980s numerous papers and monographs on Japanese modality have been published. 1 Unfortunately, however, a wealth of research — written in Japanese and circulated domestically — has remained beyond the reach of Western linguistic circles. This chapter is presented with the intention of making these research results accessible to a wider overseas readership.
