Abstract

How does the Spanish and Greek language express probability, uncertainty, and conjecture through the verbal paradigm? Are there any similarities? This article aims to answer the aforementioned questions, attempting to shed light on the function of the future and conditional tenses of the Spanish and Greek indicative. Considering that verbal forms do not only express temporal events but also have the capacity to express extra-temporal content, we studied through a contrastive analysis perspective the mechanisms through which the future tenses express probability, uncertainty, and conjecture in these languages, showing that it is possible to talk about systematic affinities.
