Abstract
The present article focuses on the study of concessive particles in Modern English. Considering the linguistic research done, the need to further develop the theory of particles from the communicative-functional approach, to define their functions and determine semantic and pragmatic peculiarities in the text is evident. Particles are important means of both natural speech and indirect speech acts formation. Besides, they influence the utterance semantics. Understanding the peculiarities of particles‘ semantics and pragmatics will undoubtedly benefit the communication process. Hence this subject is most topical to the language teaching.
