Modal adverbs are an essential part of Kazakh grammar as they enable us to express our attitudes and opinions about what we say or write. In this lesson, we will explore the modal adverbs in Kazakh, how to use them to express certainty, doubt, and other attitudes and opinions, and provide examples of their usage.
=== What are Modal Adverbs? ===
 
Modal adverbs are words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs to express the speaker's attitude toward the action or state described. In Kazakh, modal adverbs play a significant role in indicating how certain or uncertain a statement is. They can be used to express:
 
* '''Certainty''': Indicating that something is unequivocally true.
 
* '''Doubt''': Suggesting that something may not be true or is questionable.


* '''Possibility''': Indicating that something may happen.

== What are Modal Adverbs in Kazakh? ==


Modal adverbs (әрекеттер) in Kazakh are adverbs that express the speaker or writer's attitude towards the verb or sentence. There are different types of modal adverbs in Kazakh, such as epistemic (certainty/doubt), evidential (source of information), deontic (obligation), and speaker-oriented (subjectivity).
Understanding how to use these adverbs will help you express yourself more clearly and effectively.


For instance, "сыңдық" (syn'dyk) is a modal adverb in Kazakh that expresses certainty or confidence as in "Мен қатты сыңдық болдым" (Men qatty syn'dyk boldym) which means "I was sure/confident."

|}
 
==== 2. Indicating Doubt ====
 
For conveying doubt, words like "бәлкім" (perhaps) and "мүмкін" (possible) are helpful.
 
Example sentences:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
! Kazakh !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
 
| Бәлкім, ол келмейді. || Bæl'kɪm, ol kel'meɪ'dі. || Perhaps, he is not coming.
 
|-
 
| Бұл мүмкін емес. || Būl mümkin emes. || This is not possible.
 
|}
 
==== 3. Expressing Possibility ====
 
To indicate possibility, you can use "мүмкін" or "мүмкіндігі бар".
 
Example sentences:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
! Kazakh !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
 
| Ол мүмкін келер. || Ol mümkin ke'ler. || He may come.

== How to Use Modal Adverbs in Kazakh? ==
=== Summary of Modal Adverbs ===
 
To summarize, modal adverbs are pivotal in shaping the nuances of your conversation in Kazakh. They help you articulate your feelings about certainty, doubt, possibility, and necessity.
 
=== Practice Exercises ===
 
To solidify your understanding, here are some exercises you can try. Remember to think about the context in which you would use each modal adverb.
 
==== Exercise 1: Fill in the Blanks ====
 
Complete the sentences with the appropriate modal adverb from the list: (бәлкім, мүмкін, міндетті, анық, сөзсіз)
 
1. Ол _____ келуі тиіс. (must)
 
2. _____, бұл менің любимый кітап. (certainly)
 
3. _____, ол бүгін жұмысқа бармайды. (perhaps)


Modal adverbs usually come before the main verb and change its meaning or intensify the mood. For example, in the sentence "Мен өзім көрдім" (Men ozim kordim), which means "I saw it myself," the adverb "өзім" (ozim) intensifies the speaker's involvement in the action.
4. Бұл _____ шындық. (undoubtedly)


Similarly, in the sentence "Ол қус өлдін мүмкін екенін білеміз" (Ol qus oldin muymkin ekenin bilemiz), which means "We know that the bird may have died," the modal adverb "мүмкін" (muymkin) expresses doubt or uncertainty about the action.
5. _____, мен тым кешпін. (maybe)


Modal adverbs can also be used to give advice or suggestion as in the sentence "Қайтып келгендей жасауыңыз керек" (Qaytyp kelgendey zhasauyngyz kerek), which means "You should do it as if you were coming back," where the modal adverb "керек" (kerek) shows obligation or necessity.
==== Exercise 2: Translate the Sentences ====


== Examples of Modal Adverbs in Kazakh ==
Translate the following sentences into Kazakh, using the modal adverbs where appropriate.


Here are some examples of modal adverbs in Kazakh used in various contexts:
1. This is undoubtedly true.


* Сондай-ақ ешқашан тағы болмай шығады. (Sondai-aq eshqashan tagy bolmay shy'gady.) - It probably won't happen again.
2. He may come tomorrow.
* Осы іші бірге жазады. (Os'y ishi birge jazady.) - They will write it together.
* Осында басқа дегенші жоқ. (Os'yn'da bas'qa degen'shi jok.) - Otherwise there is no other choice.
* Алдымдағыларымыздың өмірі алланың қиынсызымен аяқталып жатыр. (Aldymdag'y'larymyzdyn omiri allanyn qiynsyzymen ay'ak'talyp jatyr.) - Unfortunately, our predecessors' lives ended prematurely.
* Тәулікке төтеріден тәрізден түйіндей жүреді. (Taulikke toterid'en terizden tuy'indey zhure'di.) - It apparently walks like a stork.
* Дербест жауынса әлә міндетті еместі. (Derbest ja'uwinsa ele mindetti emesti.) - If you go hunting, you should not leave your duties.


Modal adverbs are a crucial aspect of Kazakh grammar as they enable us to express our opinions, attitudes, and emotions about what we say or write. It is essential to learn how to use them correctly when speaking or writing in Kazakh.
3. Perhaps, they will join us.
