It was while attempting to wrap my brain around the meaning of the construction "must needs", which I had encountered so often in classical English Literature, that I was incidentally drawn to an inves-tigation of modals.

Said differently, a modality is merely a point of view, and a modal a linguistic vehicle for...  [Read more]
