Abstract
The paper deals with different functions of conditional in Italian and Serbian language from the semantical and pragmatical point of view. The research is aimed at investigating possible distinctions between two moods. The written corpus examined for this analysis represents the newspaper discourse in two mentioned languages. The first scope of the research is to propose a new taxonomy of possible functions. The second goal of our research is to compare the semantic and pragmatic characteristics of two conditionals. The results shows that the use of conditionals in both languages reveals high-frequency in this type of discourse. As for both languages, there are eleven functions that can also overlap. For example, the function of assumption can overlap with the function of doubt. The overlaping characteristic of these functions is an obvious sign of conditional polyfunctionality in Italian and Serbian language. Besides the fact that one type of discourse is used in our research, this study has a lot of perspectives for future studies.
