Mood is
a verbal grammatical category which serves to express the modality of
an action. By modality we mean the relation of what is said to
reality. That means whether we speak about real actions or actions
which are possible, necessary, probable, desirable, or unreal.
Modality may be expressed in different
ways:
a) by means
of mood-forms of the verb, e.g He was
here yesterday. I wish he were here;
b)
by modal verbs which may express modality both lexically and
grammatically at the same time. e.g.
I
couldn’t speak to him tomorrow even if I wished.
The
form couldn ? expresses modality twice: on the one hand by its
lexical meaning of possibility, and on the other by its mood-form.
c)
by parenthetic words, i.e. lexically: certainly, perhaps, to be sure,
I believe, etc.
d) by
phonetical ways. i.e. by means of intonation, e.g. He
is a | good man.
All the
four ways of expression of modality may be found in one and the same
sentence, e.g. Certainly you could come
to see me tomorrow.
The number
of grammatical moods very depending on the viewpoint of a scientist
and his way of approaching the problem. Moods are usually divided
into direct or indirect or oblique.
The
indicative and the imperative moodsare considered to be direct
because they directly denote the fact of an action or that another
person is directly addressed and useed to fulfill a certain action.
So the
indicative mood expresses real actions
from the speakers point of view.
The
imperative mood
is the form of a verb used to express commands or requests. If the
indicative mood has the greatest number
of forms, the imperative mood
has the fewest. Since it expresses requests or commands it has no
tense forms, because there is no sense, for example, in requests or
commands directed to the past. Commands or requests may be only in
two forms: in the affirmative and in the negative.
The
most popular in Grammar has become the system of moods put forward By
Prof. Smirnitsky. He speaks of 6 mood
forms:
The
Indicative Mood; The Imperative Mood; Subjunctive I; Subjunctive II;
The Conditional Mood; The Suppositional Mood.
