This file defines grammatical mood, the indicative or subjunctive morphology of the verb, which Portner 2018 calls verbal mood. Verbal mood is distinct from sentence mood, the declarative, interrogative or imperative character of a root clause, in form and in meaning, though the two are closely related; and both are distinct from reality status, the realis and irrealis marking of typological description, whose relation to verbal mood is not understood.
