This review article presents the current state of research on counterfactual expressions and contexts. It focuses on the relationship between formal semantic and typological approaches. This leads to a special emphasis on counterfactual expressions outside of conditional clauses and the role of counterfactual expressions in modal meanings such as weak necessity.
