EXPRESSING NON-RELIABILITY BEYOND THE DUBITATIVE PARADIGM IN THE BULGARIAN LANGUAGE

Abstract

This study examines the uses of certain renarrative and conclusive forms in the Bulgarian online corpus CLASSLA-web.bg 1.0. The hypothesis is that these forms, in specific contexts and with particular surrounding markers, have the ability to express certain variant meanings of the dubitative forms. For this purpose, corpus queries were submitted and subsequently classified and analyzed manually.
