Correcta REVIEW OF MODAL VERBS

Modal verbs of obligation
sobre 30,00
There are two modal verbs used for obligation: Must and Have to. Let's watch the following video to understand these
two.

Must vs Have to

 So, let's see each one in detail:

Must
Must is for simple present. It usually shows general obligations, like in these examples:
Travelers must show their passport before boarding a plane.
You must use a pencil on the test.

It is formal and normally used in writing. Notice how this example is formal:

All employees must wear proper safety equipment.

Have to
Have to is not an actual modal verb, but it is used like a modal.
You must conjugate the verb "have" depending on the time and subject.
I have to work tomorrow.
She has to work tomorrow.

It is used in all tenses.

I had to work last night. (simple past)
She has had to work every day this week. (present perfect)

"Have to" is less formal than "Must", so it is more common in conversation.

Must not and Don't have to

"Must not" and "don't have to" are completely diɗerent, but their meanings are often confused.
"Must not" is a negative obligation and shows something that is prohibited, like in these examples:
You must not eat in the computer room. (Food in the computer room is prohibited .)

"Don't have to" shows something that is not necessary.

I don't have to work today. (Working is not necessary.)

Now, let's practice. Choose the best option to complete each sentence.
1. You have to get a visa if you want to visit China.

2. I don't have to work during holidays.

3. Those passengers will have to show their ɗight coupons before boarding the plane.

4. You must have your glasses mended. I order you to do so!

 5. I had to stay at home two days ago because it was snowing.

6. He has had to walk since his car was stolen.

7. We don't have to take a lot of food with us.

8. You don't have to have an appointment for this doctor. You can go and see him when you want.

9. The big boss will be at the meeting. You mustn't be late.

10. What a pity you have to go now.

ULearn English School: Pre-intermediate - Should & Shouldn't

 
Should is an auxiliary verb - a modal auxiliary verb. We use should mainly to:
give advice or make recommendations
talk about suggestions
talk about probability and expectation

The structure of should is:

 

Subject+ modal verb "should"+ main verb

Remember  that:
The auxiliary verb should  is invariable. There is only one form:should
The main verb is usually in the base form (He should go).

 
Look at the basic structure again, with positive, negative and question sentences:

auxiliary main verb

  subject not
should base

+ He should   work.

- You should not go.

? Should we   help?

 
Let's take a look at the following video and let's think about some suggestions or advice we can give:
