In this paper, we propose a methodology for collecting naturally occurring data on evidentials and epistemic modals. We use Desano (Eastern Tukanoan) as a case study. This language has a complex evidential system with six evidential forms. The methodology in question consists of having Desano speakers to play a logic game, Mastermind. In this game one player (the codemaker) places colored pegs ...
This paper distinguishes among four kinds of beliefs: conviction, confidence, perception, conception. Conviction concerns self-ability:“I can build these stairs.” Confidence also concerns the self—ut focuses on the assertion of will in the face of weakness of will. Perception is about the environment such as weather prediction. Conception is also about the environment—but usually couched with c...

In this paper, we argue for treating the future as a modal and more specifically as an evidential. Unlike previous approaches, which treat it as a universal quantifier over times or world-time pairs 2, we claim that...
We discuss and analyze two subject agreement markers in Logooli (Bantu, Kenya).

We propose a treatment of the Logooli data following Matthewson, Rullmann & Davis’s (2007) and Rullmann,...

Previous studies suggest that evidential morphology is acquired relatively late, perhaps in accordance with developing cognitive abilities (Aksu-Koc, 1988 on Turkish). We focus on two evidential verbal morphemes in Turkish: -DI, u...
