Modality Component to Host Environment DOM Requirements and Capabilities Assessment (1856 words) |
 | Modality components perform interface tasks pertinent to their particular interface modality (e.g voice, pen, visual display). |
 | This subsection describes the interfaces that a modality component may choose to enable to allow the host environment to directly manipulate the component. |
 | These are the interfaces necessary for events to be passed from the modality component to the host environment. |

Modality (6053 words) |
 | In discussing epistematically modal utterances, Lyons distinguishes between "objective epistemic modality" and "subjective epistemic modality." Objective epistemic modality states an "unqualified assertion of the possibility of a proposition," while subjective epistemic modality qualifies "the assertion of the factuality of the proposition" (Lyons 1977:750). |
 | Modality and/or evidentiality marking in the speech of both interlocutors is significant in revealing their respective propositional attitudes and different cognitive processes in math problem solving. |
 | By focusing on expressions of modality, this paper has demonstrated that the linguistic behavior of an individual is significantly related to his or her cognitive processes. |
