This paper investigates two types of data that appear to motivate complicating the semantics for weak necessity modals. I argue that these data can be captured using the same conceptual resources within a conservative extension of the standard quantificational semantics. The resulting analysis illuminates previously puzzling and underappreciated semantic and pragmatic properties of weak and strong necessity modals, and clarifies the special role that expressions of weak necessity play in conversation, deliberation, and planning.

模态,权重和不一致的前提集

本文研究了两种类型的数据,这些数据似乎促使弱化必要性模态的语义复杂化。我认为可以在标准量化语义的保守扩展范围内使用相同的概念资源来捕获这些数据。结果分析阐明了弱者和强者的必要模态的先前令人费解且未被充分理解的语义和语用特性,并阐明了弱者的必要性表达在对话,商议和计划中的特殊作用。
