Form and function

• Have / has to + hele werkwoord
  
• Must + hele werkwoord
  
• Should + hele werkwoord

• We use them for different reasons:

1. Wanneer iets (niet) moet of noodzakelijk is.
2. Wanneer iets niet anders kan.
3. Om advies te geven of te zeggen dat (eigenlijk) zou moeten 

1. Wanneer iets (niet) moet of noodzakelijk is

• To say something is necessary or required we use:
   have / has to or must.
  
• The negative version is:
• don’t / doesn’t have to or must not / mustn’t
  
  
• For questions we use:
• Do / Does + subject + have to + hele ww
• Must + subject + hele ww

Have to, must and should

• What is the difference?
• Have to in informal, whereas must is more formal and mandatory.
• Must is usually used for laws, rules and orders --> really important things
  
  

1. You have to come. You are obliged to come (I require that you come)
2. You must come. You are obliged to come. (There's a rule requiring you to come)
3. You don’t have to worry about your exams, I’m sure you’ll do great. (This is my personal opinion)
4. Do I have to wear this tie? Am I obliged to wear this tie? (What do you think?)
5. Must I wear this tie? Am I obliged to wear this tie? (Is there a rule about ties?)
6. You musn't wear a tie. Am I not obliged to wear this tie? (There is rule stating no ties)

2. Wanneer iets niet anders kan

• If we want to express that something is either logical or simply can't be a different way/outcome
  
  

1. You must be exhausted after that long swim.
2. That dog must be really old, because its muzzle is grey.

3. Advies

• When we want to give advice or say something should really happen we use:
• should or shouldn’t/should not
  
  

1. We should ask Billy if he wants to come.
   
2. You should apply for the singing competition, you’ll do great!
   
3. You should drink more water.
   
4. They shouldn’t be talking this loudly in a movie theater, everyone is bothered by them.
