Question Time: What are modal verbs?
@ Justice Batri , Thank you for your question
As usual, I will try to explain the difference using simple language and plenty of examples.
- They are followed by the infinitive (without “to”) à They couldn’t sleep. (not They couldn’t to sleep)
- They do not need another helping verb to make negatives or questions. For example: Must I come? (not Do I must come?), or: He shouldn’t smoke (not He doesn’t should smoke).
- They are sometimes complicated as they can have different meanings depending on the situation.
Below is a list showing the most useful modal verbs and their most common meanings:
to express ability or is something possible to do
- I can speak a little Spanish. I can’t come to the party.
to ask permission or to make a request
- Can I open the window? Can you help me?
to express possibility or to request permission
- I may be home late. May I sit down?
- do something
- I must go now. I must clean my car today.
- She must be over 90 years old.
- You mustn’t be late.
- You should stop smoking.
- Would you like a cup of tea?
