Modality and the Conditionals in English and French A National Comparative Study

This paper investigates Arab students' mastery of modals and conditionals in context. It shows that despite the relative little complexity of modals and conditionals in English and despite the fact that English is introduced to learners well before French, French learners seem to have a relatively better mastery of modals and conditionals. The author adduces this phenomenon to the textbooks in use and to classroom practices. He asserts that modals and conditionals be taught in a pragmatically-oriented approach.
