* Controversy over the grammatical status of the “let sb. do” construction:
(1) an analytical form of the imperative;
(2) a grammaticalised syntactic means, a syncretic language means of express-
ing the meaning of volition.
o In the periphery of the functional semantic field of Modality there are:
– lexical means: modal words and phrases (which function like compound
words);
– a lexical-grammatical means – modal verbs (Subjective or Unreal objective
modality);
– a phonetic means – intonation (doubt, assurance…) (Subjective modality).
THE CATEGORY OF VOICE OF THE VERB
o a morphological-syntactic category as it is fully realized only in a sentence;
o the central means in the functional semantic field of Directionality (direc-
