Unit 13                            GRAMMAR

• Modals: ability, permission, advice, criticism, obligation and necessity, degrees of certainty

Form • All modals (will, would, shall, should, can, could, may, might, must) and the semi-modal ought to have only one form. •     Modals are followed by the bare infinitive (simple or continuous) or the bare perfect infinitive eg Toby should be very fit by now. Toby should have recovered by now. •     The semi-modals have to and need to change their form depending on person and tense eg The doctor said I had/needed to give up red meat.

( Modals: ability )

Use Modal Example
Expressing ability now or generally can I can run a kilometre in four minutes.
Expressing decisions made now about future ability can We can meet at the gym tomorrow, if you like.
Expressing ability in the past could I could do fifty press-ups with one hand when I was younger.
Expressing ability in present, future or general hypothetical situations could If only I could quit smoking!
Expressing ability in past hypothetical situations could + perfect infinitive I could have roasted the potatoes, but I decided that boiling them was healthier.

WATCH OUT

• We use be able to for the infinitive and other tenses.

I’d love to be able to fit into these jeans again! (infinitive)

I' llbe able to leave hospital in a few weeks, apparently. (future)

I' vebeen able to swim since I was five. (present perfect)

 

( Modals: permission )

Use Modal Example
Asking for and giving permission now, for the future or generally may could can May/Could/ Са n I see the doctor, please?

WATCH OUT

May is more polite than could, and could is more polite than can.

• We don't usually use a modal to talk about past permission.

✓ I was allowed to wear a knee support during the match.

I could wear a knee support during the match.

• However, we do use could to talk about past permission in reported speech.

✓ The coach said I could wear a knee support during the match.

 

( Modals: advice )

Use Modal Example
Asking for and giving advice now, for the future or generally should ought to You ought to /should cut down on the amount of red meat you eat.

 

( Modals: criticism )

Use Modal Example
Criticising past behaviour should ought to (+ perfect infinitive) He ought to /should have made more of an effort with his diet.

 

( Modals: obligation and necessity )

Use Modal Example
Expressing obligation or necessity must/have to/need to I must/have to/need to pick up that prescription from the chemist on the way home.
Expressing lack of obligation or necessity needn’t/don’t have to /don’t need to You needn't/don't have to/don't need to pick up that prescription from the chemist as I'll get it while I'm in town.
Expressing past obligation had to I had to take the pills three times a day for two weeks.
Expressing lack of past obligation needn't(+perfect infinitive) / didn't have to / didn't need to I needn't have gone/didn't have to go/didn't need to go to the doctor.

WATCH OUT

• There is usually no difference in meaning between must and have to. However, we are sometimes more likely to use must for personal obligation (making our own decision about what we must do) and have to for external obligation (someone else making a decision about what we must do).

• We can also use will have/need to to express future obligation.

✓ You' ll have/need to be more careful about what you eat in future.

• It is unusual to use must for questions. We usually use have/need to.

✓ Do I have/need to take this medicine before every meal?

Must cannot be used as an infinitive. Use to have to.

✓ I'd hate to have to have injections every day.

Mustn't and don't/doesn't have/need to have different meanings.

✓ You mustn't do that! (Don't do that! )

✓ You don't have/need to do that. (You can do that if you want to but it's not necessary.)

Needn't (+ perfect infinitive) always refers to an action that happened.

Didn't have to and didn't need to can refer to actions that did or didn't happen.

✓ I needn't have gone to the doctor. (I went but it wasn't necessary.)

✓ I didn't have/need to go to the doctor because I suddenly felt better. (I didn't go.)

✓ I didn't have/need to go to the doctor but I went just to be on the safe side. (I did go.)

• Be careful with the verb need. It can also take the -ing form.

✓ I need to sterilise this syringe.

✓ This syringe needs sterilis ing.

 

( Modals: degrees of certainty )

Use Modal Example
Expressing certainty (or near certainty) about now or generally must can’t couldn’t That must be the district nurse at the door. These can't/couldn't be the pills; they're the wrong colour.
Expressing certainty (or near certainty) about the past must can’t couldn’t (+perfect infinitive) She must have been in a lot of pain. His leg can't/couldn't have been in plaster for two years!
Expressing probability about now, the future or generally should ought to You ought to/should feel better in a few days, as long as you get lots of rest.
Expressing probability about the past should ought to (+perfect infinitive) The bruise ought to /should have disappeared days ago. I wonder why it didn't.
Expressing possibility about now, the future or generally could may might You should talk to your doctor first because that diet could / may /might be dangerous.
Expressing possibility about the real past could may might (+perfect infinitive) That could/may/might have been the doctor who rang earlier while we were out.
Expressing possibility about a hypothetical past could might (+perfect infinitive It's a good thing you went to the doctor or you could/might have become quite ill.
