Modal helping verbs

We use modal helping verbs to "modify" the meaning of the main verb in some way. A modal helping verb expresses necessity or possibility, and changes the main verb in that sense.

can, could may, might will, would, shall, should, must, ought to లను మోడల్ హెల్పింగ్ వెర్బ్స్ అంటారు. మోడల్ సహాయక క్రియలను అవసరం, అనుమతి లేదా అవకాశాన్ని వ్యక్తపరించేందుకు ఉపయోగిస్తారు. ఇవి ప్రధాన క్రియ యొక్క అర్దాన్ని ఏదో ఒక విధంగా సవరించి, వాక్యానికి పూర్తి అర్దాన్ని కల్పిస్తుంది.

Modal Helping Verb తరవాత వచ్చే ప్రధాన క్రియ లేదా సహాయక క్రియలు ఎప్పుడూ V1 (Verb Base form) గా మాత్రమే ఉంటాయి. ఇంకే రూపంలోనూ ఉండవు. కానీ మోడల్ సహాయక క్రియకు, ప్రధాన క్రియకు మధ్య ఇంకో సహాయక క్రియ వచ్చే సందర్భంలో ప్రధాన క్రియ V3 గా ఉంటుంది.

అలానే మోడల్ సహాయక క్రియలకు మరికొన్ని ప్రత్యేకతలు ఉన్నాయి. ఇవి Gerunds గా ఉండవు. Participles గా ఉండవు. అంటే వీటికి ing రూపం గానీ V3 రూపం గానీ ఉండవు. అలానే ఇవి infinitives గా కూడా ఉండవు.

మోడల్ సహాయక క్రియలకు ఏక, బహు వచన భేదాలు కూడా ఉండవు. Shall, Will ల విషయంలో మినహా, వీటికి సకర్మక, అకర్మక భేదాలు వర్తించవు. అలానే ఇవి Finite క్రియలతో కలిసి ఉంటాయి కానీ, Non-Finite క్రియలతో కలిసి ఉండవు. వీటి ఉపయోగం తెలిస్తే సగం ఇంగ్లీష్ తెలిసినట్లే కాబట్టి, ఇవి ఉపయోగించే సందర్భాలు మరియు ఉదహారణలు వివరంగా చూద్దాం.

Shall & Will

Shall : In the past, ‘shall’ was often used as an alternative to ‘will’, and you can find many examples of ‘shall’ in famous literary works. But in modern English we usually prefer ‘will’ for affirmative and negative sentences.

Will : The most basic and common form used to express the future is ‘will’. The structure of ‘will’ is easy because it is the same for all subjects and you don’t need to change anything about the verb.

Shall	Will
To make offers using I/we Shall I make some lunch? Shall we help you with your bags? Where shall I drop you off? Outside your office? Shall I water your plants while you’re away?	To describe the future We’ll be at the hotel until 8pm. The trains will be late today because of the bad weather. How long will you stay in Hong Kong? He’ll send us the report.
To make suggestions using I/we Shall we go to the park later? Shall we have something to eat? Who shall we invite to the party? What shall we do after we’ve watched the film?

Who do you think will win the tournament?
To express formal obligations Applicants shall provide evidence of their qualifications. Guests shall not remove anything from the rooms. The accused shall appear in court again on 26th October.	To express a decision made at the moment of speaking I’ll have the vegetable soup please. I’ll answer it. I’ll just go and say ‘hello’ before we leave.
To make a promise shall never forget the help you gave me. I shan’t be late. We shall do everything we can to solve the problem. He shan’t be long. Do have a seat while you wait.	To make a request Will you bring some more water please? Will you come to the appointment with me? Will you be quiet please? You’ll give me a hand with dinner, won’t you?
To describe the future very formally We shall overcome this difficult moment. The tests shall be carried out by an independent body. Mr Lopez shall begin his talk at 2:30pm. shall be limited today due to the marathon.	To make promises and offers I’ll call you when I get home. She’ll help you finish the work, don’t worry. We’ll send you the goods as soon as possible. Lee and Kim will show you around the city.

Should & Would

Should’ and ‘would’ are auxiliary verbs that can sometimes get confusing. They are the past tense of ‘shall’ and ‘will’ but are also used in other situations

Should	Whould
To express something that is probable Ravi should be here by 2:00 PM. He should be bringing Geetha with him.	To ask ‘who’, ‘what’, ‘where’, ‘when’, ‘why’ or ‘how’ How would you do that? When would we have time to do that?
To ask questions Should we turn left at this street? Shouldn’t you be getting ready for work?	To make a polite request Would you like any tea? Would you like anything else?
To show obligation, give recommendation or even an opinion You should stop eating fast food. We should go to the park tomorrow.	To ask questions Would you like fries or salad? Would you like to join us tonight?

Must & Ought to

Must : Must remains unchanged whatever be the tense or the number and person of the subject. It can refer to the present or future. It can point to the past only when it is used with the present perfect tense of the principal verb.

Ought to : Ought is different from other auxiliary verbs: it is followed by a to-infinitive.

Must	Ought to
Must expresses compulsion or strong obligation He must apologize for his mistakes. They must pay the fine. You must be loyal to your country.	Ought expresses ideas such as duty, necessity, moral obligation We ought to help the poor and the needy. You ought to exercise regularly. She ought to be back by 10 o’clock.
Necessity We must get up early and start on our way. Must we wait for them?	I ought to go. I must go.
Must can express probability or likelihood He must be mad to do this. Oh, there is the door bell; that must be the postman.	She must wait. She ought to wait. You ought to have helped him.

Have to & Used to

Have to : In general, have to expresses impersonal obligation. The subject of have to is obliged or forced to act by a separate, external power (for example, the Law or school rules). Have to is objective.

Used to :We use this expression to talk about habits or repeated actions in the past which we don't do in the present. We also use it to talk about states in the past which are no longer true.

Have to	Used to

Dare & Need

Dare : Dare is often accompanied with the negative word not to form negative statements. There is contraction of dare not which is daren’t, but it is rarely used. Dare does not change its form, such as ending with an –s for the third person singular.

Need : Need like the other semi-modal verbs can both act as a modal verb and a main verb. It follows the subject and in turn is followed by the main verb.

Dare	Need
How dare you speak to me like that? Don't you dare go in there. I didn't dare answer. I daren't tell her She dare not sleep alone in the dark Dare anyone say I can’t do it? I daren’t tell him the truth; he’ll go crazy.	He need not apologize because it’s not his fault. Nothing need to be done for now. I need not spend a lot of time for you. I need not go. I do not need to do it. You needn't come if you're busy.
