Some concepts and terms in relation to this linguistic area such as definition of verbs, definition of verb phrases, volition, volitional verbs denoting intentions and wishes have been presented and discussed. The viewpoints on volitional verbs denoting intentions and wishes of some linguists like Halliday (1989), Quirk and Greenbaum (1973), Diệp Quang Ban and Hoàng Văn Thung (2006) have been also mentioned in theoretical background on which 1129 English samples and 1019 Vietnamese ones have been collected from 18 novels and short stories by English, American and Vietnamese writers to find out the syntactic, semantic and pragmatic features of volitional verbs. A contrastive analysis has been carried out to explore the similarities and differences between English volitional verbs and Vietnamese ones in terms of the above mentioned aspects.
