Slovenian verb moči (‘be able to’) and morati (‘have to/must’) and their equivalents in Russian and Ukrainian languages.

Magistrsko delo obravnava področje naklonskosti s stališča vprašanj sodobnih teorij naklonskosti, predstavljenih na podlagi raziskave jezikoslovca Jana Nuytsa: Analyses of the Modal Meanings (2014). Predstavi tri glavne tipe naklonskosti: dinamično, deontično in epistemično. Temu sledi podrobnejša obravnava slovenskih naklonskih glagolov moči in morati, pregled njunih pojavitev tako v sodobnih kot tudi v starejših jezikovnih priročnikih ter pregled rabe teh dveh glagolov s pomočjo slovenskega korpusa Gigafida. V drugem delu magistrskega dela sopostavljamo ruski roman Bulgakova Mojster in Margareta s prevodoma v slovenski in ukrajinski jezik (s pomočjo vzporednega korpusa ParaSol), kar služi za ponazoritev in primerjavo naklonskih izrazov, ki se v slovenščino prevajajo z glagoloma moči in morati.This master’s thesis discusses modality from the point of view of contemporary modality theories presented on the basis of the research conducted by the linguist Jan Nuyts: Analyses of the Modal Meanings (2014). The master’s thesis explains three main types of modality: dynamic, deontic and epistemic, followed by a detailed analysis of the Slovenian verbs moči (&#8219be able to’) and morati (&#8219have to’/&#8219must’), an overview of the occurrence in contemporary and older language handbooks as well as an overview of the usage of both verbs. To analyse the occurrence and usage of both verbs, Slovenian corpus Gigafida was used. The second part of the Master’s thesis places the original Russian version of Bulgakov’s novel The Master and Margarita in juxtaposition with its Slovenian and Ukrainian translations (with the help of the parallel corpus ParaSol) with the purpose of illustrating and comparing modal expressions that are translated into Slovenian language by the verbs moči (&#8219be able to’) and morati (&#8219have to’/&#8219must’)
