THE CONTEXT AS A WAY OF EXPLICATION OF QUALIFYING MODUS CATEGORIES

Abstract

Aim: a systematic description of qualifying modus meanings in the context, identifying ways of interacting with the categories of modality, emotiveness, and evaluativeness, as well as determining the degree of influence of these categories on the formation of the general meaning of the utterance. Methodology. The empirical material was analyzed using the functional approach, which allowed us to describe the qualifying modus categories both at the level of the elementary communicative structure - sentences, and at the text level. Results. The hypothesis is confirmed that the context, being one of the obligatory areas of explication of qualifying modus categories - evaluation, emotiveness and modality, allows you to functionally analyze the objective and subjective components of these categories, as well as determine the parameters of their interaction in the semantic structure of the sentence. Research implications: it consists in summarizing the theoretical data on the topic under study. Qualitative modus categories are investigated at the level of their semantic realization. The way of analysis of empirical material is substantiated - from semantic categories to the means of their representation.
