Abstract

The article outlines the relationship of the realis/irrealis phenomenon with other categories, including the tense and modal verb. Signs of future tense are observed mixed with irrealis adjectives. That is, it is argued that adjectives of irrealis are used to express “future events”. Future events presented in a clear, realistic way represent a sign of what will happen in the future.
