In Halliday's Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), the concepts of **mood** and **residue** are distinct from **Theme** and **Rheme**. Here’s a comparison:
- **Theme** and **Rheme**: These terms refer to the structural components of a clause that organize the message. The **Theme** is the part of the clause that provides the starting point or the message's focus, while the **Rheme** is the part that elaborates or develops the message. The Theme-Rheme structure is crucial for understanding the flow of information in a text[1][3][4].
- **Mood** and **Residue**: These terms are part of the interpersonal metafunction in SFL. The **mood** refers to the clause's modality, which indicates the speaker's attitude or commitment to the proposition. The **residue** is the remainder of the clause after the mood has been identified, and it includes the subject and finite verbal operator[5].
In summary, while Theme and Rheme focus on the structural organization of the message, mood and residue focus on the interpersonal aspect of the clause, specifically on modality and the speaker's attitude.
