of Modality Through British National Corpus
💗BNCweb is a web-based client program for searching and retrieving lexical, grammatical and textual data from the
British National Corpus (BNC).
💚Objectives
BNCweb will e specifically applied through chosen modal verbs in order to:
1. shed some light on modal verbs of ahich meanings are difficult to make distinction on theoretical background.
2. affirm that modalities can be interchangeable due to different contexts, such as gender, type of data, perceived level of difficulty and etc.
💚Method
Three modal verbs ("should", "have to" and "must") will be scrutinized by available functions ("distribution", "collocation" and "concordance") via BNCweb in order to offer empirical information, such as grammatical usage and discursive practice, of modalities in British context. Details of methodology in each function will be subsequently explained in results and discussion section.
