Tóm tắt
This paper is meant to examine in detail a specific type of modal realization as expressed through the combination of cognitive non-factive verbs with epistemic adverbs. The main point we would like to focus on in this paper is the harmony of cognitive non-factive verbs and epistemic adverbs in pragmatics based on the scale of certainty. With 200 English utterances collected from different sources such as novels, short stories and the internet, the paper has investigated the collocations of cognitive non factive verbs and epistemic adverbs to find out the usage of these collocations in daily conversations with specific communication purposes such as politeness, vagueness, mitigation. It is hoped this will open the path for a number of interesting questions related to the special status of the relationship between cognitive non-factive verbs and epistemic adverbs,which is very useful for learners of English in using these collocations effectively in communication
