Modal verbs
Today we have learnt the use of modal verbas, you can review them and do the exercises for tomorrow in the following links:
- Unit 26. Can, could and (be) able to.
- Unit 27. Could (do) and could have (done).
- Unit 28. Must and can't.
- Unit 29. May and might 1.
- Unit 30. May and might 2.
- Unit 31. Have to and must.
There are some many forms of use of (be) able to:
- would love to - I'd love to be able to do it. (Me encantaría ser capaz de hacerlo)
- won't be able to - I will not to be able to do it. (No seré capaz de hacerlo)
- have never been able to - I have never been able to do it. (Nunca he sido capaz de hacerlo)
- hate not being able to - I hate not being able to do it. (Odio no poder hacerlo)
Remember the use of the modal auxiliary verb "ought to" , it expresses duty, necessity, desirability and similar ideas. It is often used to advise people – to tell them that they have a duty to do things. The meaning is similar to should
- You ought to attend office regularly. (Duty)
- We ought to help the needy. (Moral obligation)
- We ought to buy some furniture. (Necessity)
Ought is not as forceful as must.
Moreover, we have watched two videos about modal verbs today:
