The category of mood. Different views on the number and kinds of mood in English.According to pr. Хаймович and Роговская mood is grammatical category of the verb reflecting the relation of the action denoted by the verb to relaty from the speakers point of view. According to Блох the category the mood is more controversial of the verb. The category of mood expresses the carecter of catection between the proses denoted by the verb and the actual realety either presentery the proses us the fact the really happened/happens or will happen or treating it as imaginary phenomena that is a subject of hypothesis, speculation or desire. Ильиш the category of mood in the present. Has given rises so many discussions and has been treated in so many different ways that is seams hardly possible to arrive at any more or less convissin and universally exeptatle conclusion conserning it/ Pr. Vinogradov considers that mood expresses the relations to the exetion of reality as a steated by a speaker and it divides moods into indiegtive (actually taking place) and conditional (meanly imaginary). F.e. if he knew this he would come if he had known this he would have come. In the first sentens knew is unreal action in the present is would come is unreal consequence in the present had known is unreal condition in the past. Would have come is unreal consequence is the past. Хаймович и Роговская believe that one of the important difference between the indicative and the other moods is the meaning of tense doesn’t go with the meanings subjunctive mood and imperative mood. Tense reflectes the real time of the real exotion. The imperative and subjunctive moods represent the action as a real but as disiered or emaginy and the notion of the real time are discurded. Sinse the basic meaning of the mperative mood is appeal to the leasen to performe a action incompetable with a past tense. Different view of a number of moods.in modern English. Ильиш (Виноградова, Иванова) there are 3 moods (indicative, subjunctive and imperative). Дойчбан differentiates 16 moods. Pr. Смирницкий (Ахшанова, Василевская) they are differentiate 6 moods: indicative, subjunctive I, suppositional, conditional, subjunctive II and imperative. Pr. Бархударов 2 moods: indicative, subjunctive. Pr. Воронцова speaks of 4 moods: indicativeoptative – subjunctive, desiderative, imperative, speculative –dutitative, irrealis, presumptive. According to Ильиш indicative mood denotes the action represented by the speaker as a real one. The mention of speaker who represents the action as a real is mose essential. Gramma doesn’t deal with truth or untruth of the statement with a predicit verb in the indicative mood. What is essential of a grammatical point o view is a meaning of as used by the auteur in this or that sentence. Some dout about the meaning of the indicative mood may a rise if we take into account it’s use in conditional sentences such us I’ll speak to him if I … The conditional meaning is exprested by a conjunction and it doesn’t alters the mo of the sentens, the meaning of a verb form we made what it was
