Probability
must / might / could / may / can't

I am waiting for Julie with another friend, David.
I ask: 'Where is Julie?'
David guesses:

  • She must be on the bus. (I'm fairly sure this is a good guess)
  • She might come soon. (maybe)
  • She could be lost. (maybe)
  • She may be in the wrong room. (maybe)
  • She can't be at home. (I'm fairly sure this isn't true)

Notice that the opposite of 'must' is 'can't in this case.

  • I could read when I was four. -> general ability = once you've learned how to do it, you can do it as many  times as you want
  • When the computer crashed yesterday, I was able to fix it.(not 'I could fix it') -> specific ability: you can or cannot do something in a specific situation

Future: will / won't be able to or can / can't
  • At the end of the course, you will be able to make your own website ->  general ability = once you've learned how to do it, you can do it as many times as you want
  • I can help you tomorrow -> specific ability: you can or cannot do something in a specific situation

Slide 14 - Diapositive

Permission
We can use verbs such as 'can', 'could' and 'may' to ask for and give permission. We also use modal verbs to say something is not allowed.


For example:
  • Could I leave early today, please?
  • You may not use the car tonight.
  • Can we swim in the lake?

Slide 15 - Diapositive

Obligation and advice

We can use 'will' and 'would' to talk about habits or things we usually do, or did in the past.
