ABSTRACT

From the perspective of modality, this paper proposes the term of Modal Adverbs Denoting Euphemism, which canbe further divided into four sub-types on the standard of uncertainty. Furthermore, the paper figures out the different syntactic features of the said four sub-types. The combination of semantics and syntax will shed some lights on the teaching of Chinese to speakers of other languages.
