Most languages to bring the message home they use specialized sentence clauses or
structures that are referred to as existential constructions. The main reason behind these clauses
is for the users to be able to be able to express a proposition that explains how an individual or
item exists or is available. Modality and existential mainly manifest themselves in any language
and in The Korean language they are seen in word order, case marking and non-canonical
agreement. Epistemic is an indicator of overreaction, and thus it is an evidential marker that
signals a perfect inference. Natural language such as Korean requires existential quantification
due to the reason that the language is varied and modalized. Modal construction in the Korean
language indicate a necessity and possibility. The situational possibility is also known as
circumstantial, or root is indicated by use of internal clause –(u)I swu iss. In this clause the –uI
had a future meaning and referred to as an adnominal suffix, the swu is an expression of
possibility and mainly occurs with the copula also called as the existential verb. Looking at a
sentence that is normalized and apply a perception verb for example kath which means look
alike. Epistemic construction can be formed such as pi-ka o-l kes- kath- ta which means it “may
rain or looks like rain." However, with few changes, it will indicate an adnominal sentence such
as nwumn-I o-l tus-ha –ta which gives a different meaning that “it looks like snow”. The use of
verb po in The Korean language that is preceded by a question that requires a yes or no form
adnominal phrases. In some instances when a noun is used to express ability or possibility such
as swu or necessity such as Philo or reasonable expected such as li and is proceeded by an
adnominal sentence is mainly followed by an existential verb that is written s –iss or negative
eps. However, philyo may be used to indicate a normative case in the conditional sentence in The
Korean language (Kwon, 550).
