Özet:

The modality, which is a semantic category that covers not only the action but the whole sentence, and expresses the speaker’s subjective approach to the event or situation (intention, desire, personal feelings, etc.), is at the syntactic level with the concept of modality, which is the form of this semantic category marked with morphemes and/or lexical units differ in its realization. The modality that shows the speaker’s judgment of a proposition as possible or necessary according to the degree of certainty is the modality of knowledge; The modality, which expresses the speaker’s guiding attitudes towards the realization of a proposition and an action, is considered within the scope of the modality of deontic. The categories of the modality of deontic (requirement, permission, obligation, and imperative) that are the subject of the study have been associated with discourses that correspond to the speaker’s attitudes in which he is in a position of authority and imposes responsibilities towards the listener in language studies. In this study, the concepts of mode and modality, which do not seem to make a clear distinction in terms of definition and boundaries in Turkish, are mentioned; The different semantic functions of the modal markers, which were witnessed by making a context-oriented analysis from Yunus Emre’s advice book Risâletü’n-Nushiyye (Fatih’s Copy), which was chosen as a sample, were evaluated.
