   

Recognize the modal verbs used in the sentence. Choose the appropriate modal to complete a sentence. Cite the importance of using modals in the sentence. Understand the different uses and meanings of the modal verbs.

Thank you! G. Lesson Proper

What is a modal? Modal verbs are a special kind of auxiliary verbs. Like other auxiliary verbs, they are always used with a main verb but modal verbs express an attitude to what we say. They can express how certain or uncertain we are about an event, or how willing or unwilling we are to do something, for example. We will give attention to the four paired forms can and could, will and would, may and might, and shall and should and one of the singular forms- must.

Okay class, I have here different sentences. 1. How will express your ability and capability in something? 2. How will you give permission? 3. How can you offer someone an option? Who would want to read the sentences?

What did you observe from the sentences? Very good! So what is the function of can in the first sentence, John? Precisely! How about in the second sentence? Correct! In the third sentence? How about in the last sentence?

Meaning to say can is used to? There are three (3) functions of CAN and they are to… (The teacher will ask somebody to read the following from her PowerPoint presentation.) Is that clear? How about this… 4. How will you say request to someone politely? 5. How will you convey a suggestion? 6. How will you state possibility of something?

(The students will read the sentences provided by the teacher) 1. I can drive. 2. Can I use your phone please? 3. You can use my phone. 4. Students can pre-enrol the subjects. S1: The sentences uses can. S2: The word can in the first sentence state physical capacity or ability. The persona talking is stating that he is able to driving. S3: The word can in the second sentence ask permission or request. S4: In the third sentence the word can is used to give permission. S5: In the last sentence the word can is used to give an option.

S6: The function of CAN are the ff: 1. Showing ability 2. Suggest possibility or give an option. 3. To ask for or give permission. Yes Ma’am! S1: Could I use your phone, please? S2: We could go to the new restaurants. S3: It could rain today.

Very good! The functions of could are the following. Could you please read, Bea?

could functions as: 1. Polite permission 2. Suggestion/option 3. It also shows possibility.

Very good. Thank you!

7. How will ask permission in polite and formal way? How about these sentences? Who would like to read? What have you notice in this sentences? Yes Jane, How about the first sentence? How about the second sentence Mary Joy? …and the third? Yes John? Exactly! So what is the function of may? Can you differentiate may from could?

Very good! Who would like to read these sentences?

So what is the function of the sentences? You’re right! So might is used to show what?

S1: May I use your phone please? S2: It may rain today. S3: She may be at home.

S4: The first sentence express polite request. S5: The second sentence says possibility, more probable than could. S7: The third sentence is the same as the second one. May is used to: 1. Ask for a polite permission (formal way). 2. Give possibility, more probable than could.

1. It might rain today. 2. She might be at home. The probability of the event is greatly reduced when might is used. Possibility Ma’am.

Correct! Class, remember that may is used in writing because it is formal while might is more common in conversations. Are you still up? Modal are quite confusing but you should analyze the sentences to use the appropriate modals. Let’s continue. Who would like to read these sentences?

What does it have?

Very good! Base from the sentences what are the function of modal “will”?

Yes Ma’am!

(a student will read the sentences) 1. He will leave for the plane at 7am. 2. I will make dinner. 3. I will call you at 4pm. 4. The summer will be very hot. 5. Will you help me with these boxes? (a student will answer) The first sentence shows action for the future. The second sentence tells about a voluntary action. The third sentence is a promise. The next sentence after that is a prediction. The last question is a polite question. The functions of the modal will are the ff: 1. State future action.

2. Voluntary action. 3. Promise 4. Prediction 5. To ask polite question. Very good! Who would like to read these sentences?

1. When I lived in Manila, I would go to the mall every day. 2. Mark promised that he would help me with my Math homework.

How does “would” perform in the sentence? The first sentence indicated repeated action in the past. The second sentence indicates future time in the sentence that is in the past. Very well said! Do you understand?

Yes Ma’am!

How about these sentences? Who would like to read?

1. The defendant shall pay a fine of P2.000. 2. Shall we begin? 3. Thou shall not kill.

It is observable that the sentences have shall. What is the difference of function from each sentence?

The first sentence tells something about legal obligation. The second sentence of interrogative shows suggestion. The third sentence is a future action.

Very well said! So from the sentences mentioned, can you tell me the function of modal “shall”? That’s right! Would you please read these sentences? (pointing the student) Who can tell me the function of modal verb “should”?

Very good! And lastly, who wants to read and share his analysis about these sentences?

Function of shall 1. It state obligation. 2. Suggestion 3. Future action, rare, British 1. You should try the new restaurant downtown. 2. I should renew my driver’s license. 3.

To show obligation. 3. To show expectation. 1. I must call my parent tonight. 2. She must be at home.
