Modal Auxiliaries Unit 2: Lesson 21
“You should come to the animal shelter with me,” Erin said
to Holly. “You can pass the test that will qualify you to play with the dogs and cats there.”
Circle the boldfaced helping verb which indicates that someone has the ability to do something. Underline the boldfaced helping verb which expresses a duty or an obligation.
The helping verbs may and might can be used to ask or give permission. The helping verbs can and could can be used to indicate ability. The helping verbs should and must can be used to communicate a duty or an obligation. The helping verbs may, might, could, should, and will can be used to indicate possibility—how likely something is to happen. Helping verbs that have these special functions are called modal auxiliaries.
See Handbook Section 17
