Summary/Abstract: The article comments on the interrelations between the morphological verbal categories of perfects, moods, the inferential and taxis. In Bulgarian, their grammemes are related, albeit in different ways, to modality, to the speaker’s attitude (expressed through the forms) towards various circumstances regarding the realisation and reference of the action. In some cases, this attitude is subjective (e.g. in the case of moods), in others it is objective, but with reference to the perception and veridicality of the verbal action. Taxis in Bulgarian is a modalised category.
