Highlights
Modality concerns the speaker's "attitude" toward the content of what he is saying, including obligation, necessity, permission, volition, intention, ability, possibility, certainty, etc
Epistemic adverbs vary in their total frequencies, they all tend to appear much more often in the written texts rather than in the spoken transcripts
This paper explored the usage of epistemic adverbs perhaps, probably, maybe and possibly in British National Corpus with Sketch Engine (SkE)
Summary
Modality concerns the speaker's "attitude" toward the content of what he is saying, including obligation, necessity, permission, volition, intention, ability, possibility, certainty, etc. Epistemic modality refers to possibility and necessity in the mental world as in the process of human reasoning, which can be expressed in verbs, adverbs, and other forms. I will examine the usage differences among epistemic adverbs perhaps, probably, maybe and possibly by using the 100 million-word British National Corpus (BNC) as data and the software Sketch Engine (SkE) as the analyzing tool. I will give an overview of related work by introducing corpus approaches to synonyms. The final section summarizes major findings and pedagogical implications of this study
