Abstract
In the categories of mood it is usual to include two quite distinct subtypes: verbal mood and sentence mood. However, the results of the previous two chapters suggest that these subtypes may not be a separate as is usually assumed, and also point to the possibility that other linguistic phenomena may be understood as exemplifying mood as well. This chapter proposes a unification of verbal mood and sentence mood as a category of core mood, and then considers the relation of reality status (realis/irrealis marking) and evidentiality to core mood.
