Modaladverb Glossary of terms

Modaladverbien are adverbs that express the attitude or evaluation of the speaker about an action or situation.

Detailed Explanation

Modaladverbien are used to express different degrees of certainty, probability, doubt, or personal evaluation of a statement. These adverbs are usually placed at the beginning of the sentence or after the conjugated verb. Some common examples are "vielleicht" (perhaps), "wahrscheinlich" (probably), and "sicher" (certainly).

Their proper use allows the speaker to nuance their statements and express their point of view precisely.
