Abstract. The article analyses how modal constructions contribute to the realization of the communicative and pragmatic potential of the business meeting genre. Taking into account the specificity of the business meeting discourse as a subtype of the modern English business discourse the author identifies typical pragmatic functions of deontic and epistemic modal components in disputants’ speech. Deontic components serve to express a viewpoint, wish, instruction, etc. and epistemic components express desirability, necessity, influence of external circumstances, etc.
Key words and phrases: коммуникативно-прагматический потенциал, бизнес-дискурс, бизнес-совещание, деонтическая модальность, эпистемическая модальность, communicative and pragmatic potential, business discourse, business meeting, deontic modality, epistemic modality
