This paper focuses on the different degrees of probability and certainty among four adverbs-maybe, probably, perhaps, and possibly-as a study in the field of discourse analysis. Data for the analysis is based on the results of questionnaires which were obtained by the author at Central Washington University, Washington, USA. The results of this research reveal how these four adverbs are used in real communication among American-native English speakers
