It has special individuality in the respects of syntax,semantic, and pragma.This article studied Modality Adverbs Denotiong "comprehend", regardingstructuralism as the foundation, combining to borrow ideas from the theoreticalresearch methods of grammaticalization, cognitive grammar, and functionalgrammar.This article integratedly studied Modality Adverbs Denoting "comprehend"in four parts totally.The first part made a semantic analysis of Modality Adverbs Denoting"comprehend". First we found out the way to distinguish them from the angle of thedifferentiation of terms of meaning to delimit our range of research. Then we appliedthe functional grammar and the semantics theories to induce the semanteme of ModalityAdverbs Denoting "comprehend "in text, pointing out that they have the semanticfeatures of factivity, expressivity, and indexicality.The second part made syntactic structural types analysis and syntactic typesanalysis.
