Cognitive constraints on modality : an Artificial Language Learning study ...
Semantic research has recognized two main axes of variation in modal meanings: force (quantification strength) and flavour (the type of quantified possibilities). Interestingly, there is substantial cross-linguistic variation in how these two axes are specified: many languages (e.g., English, German...

Interestingly, there is substantial cross-linguistic variation in how these two axes are specified: many languages (e.g., English, German) only distinguish modal force, some languages (e.g., St'át'imcets, Nez Perce) have modals that specify flavour but not force, and others have modals that serve to express both force and flavor (e.g., Javanese Paciran) or neither one (e.g., Washo; Koryak).

Semantic research has recognized two main axes of variation in modal meanings: force (quantification strength) and flavour (the type of quantified possibilities). Interestingly, there is substantial cross-linguistic variation in how these two axes are specified: many languages (e.g., English, German) only distinguish modal force, some languages (e.g., St'át'imcets, Nez Perce) have modals that specify flavour but not force, and others have modals that serve to express both force and flavor (e.g., Javanese Paciran) or neither one (e.g., Washo; Koryak). Different constraints have been proposed to capture this cross-linguistic variation in modal expression.
