In the paper, the differences in meaning are discussed when it comes to usage of modal verbs trebati and sollen in Serbian and German respectively in both deontic and epistemic use. The starting point of the paper is the observation that there is not always the equivalence between the verbs trebati and sollen and that this is the reason why students of German often make mistakes when using these verbs. In the paper, by means of contrasting, we determine the similarities and differences when using the verbs trebati and sollen in different types of texts, that is, point out translation equivalents in the case of non-equivalence.
