Isi artikel

Starting from the well-known difference between I 'thought he was, married (which he is) - where the complement is given a factual interpretation - and I thought he was 'married (but he isn't) - which is counterfactual - this article examines the syntactic, semantic, contextual and prosodic conditions under which factual and counterfactual interpretations can emerge. Factuality is distinguished from factivity, and concerns a person's (usually the speaker's) subjective assessment of whether the propositional content of a sentence or sentence fragment conforms or conflicts with his perception of reality. The modal nature of factuality is stressed, as is the contribution of tense and intonation to the emergence of factuality interpretations.
