RULES!

* You can't conjugate modals

* Always followed by infinitive

* Add NOT to say the opposite or make the negative

Je gebruikt must en have to als je iets moet doen. Must en have to worden vaak in dezelfde gevallen gebruikt, maar er zijn wel een paar kleine verschillen. 

Zo kun je must niet in de verleden tijd gebruiken en ook niet bij feiten. Bijvoorbeeld:

I had to work last night (en niet: I must work last night).

I have to travel to London on Sunday for my work. (en niet: I must travel to London on Sunday for my work .)

Must wordt vaak in geschreven teksten en instructies gebruikt. Zo schrijf je bijvoorbeeld: The letters must be here by 14 April.

Must & Have to

Should

Should wordt gebruikt om advies of een mening te geven. Ook als iets anders is dan je had verwacht gebruik je should. Hieronder volgen een paar voorbeelden van hoe je should kunt gebruiken:

You should go to bed now. (Je moet nu naar bed gaan).

I think he shouldn’t go there anymore. (Ik denk dat hij daar niet meer heen moet gaan.)

She should have left the house earlier. (Ze had eerder van huis moeten gaan.)

 ought to: eigenlijk moeten, behoren te (gebruik in de vraagvorm alleen in een formele situatie) Je gerbuikt deze vorm als je iets heel formeel wilt zeggen over vragen

You ought to be more polite.

They ought to do their homework more often.

Ought to
