3. is there any marked realization of speech function in MOOD?
Yes, there is. They are the sentences in number 14, 27 and 30
4. in your opinion, do the proportions of speech functions and moods project verbal human
interactions in the natural setting? No, they do not. In natural setting, human make a lot of
questions/interrogative, offer, or command/imperative sentences. But in this finding, they result in a
very small number. So they dont project verbal human interactions in the natural setting.
