Modal Auxiliaries


In English there are 11 modal auxiliaries.
Can, Could, Had better, May, Might, Must, Ought to, Shall, Should, Will, Would.
Modal auxiliaries generally express a speaker’s attitude or ‘moods’. For example, modals can express that speaker feels something is necessary, advisable, permissible, possible, or probable; and in addition, they can convey the strength of these attitudes.
