Modality in Brooding is used to indicate possibility, necessity, or likelihood of certain verbs being true. In English, this sort of modality is generally handled by using various auxiliary verbs, such as ‘may’, ‘can’, ‘should’, ‘must’, &c. In Brooding, modality can be indicated with verbal infixes inserted into the verb after the key vowel. | Modality in Brooding is used to indicate possibility, necessity, or likelihood of certain verbs being true.
