Must (not) & (don't) have to

Can do - 

Today's plan

• Must vs Have to > statement (bevestigend)
• Must not vs Don't have to > negation (ontkennend)

Have to vs Must (present simple)

Subject + MUST/HAVE TO + Verb + Rest

• I must go home now. 
• I have to work at 8:30am tomorrow. 
• We must hurry!
• She has to call her mother. 

Vertaal: I must go home now.
We must hurry!
I have to work at 8:30am tomorrow.
She has to call her mother.

Must vs Have to> moeten

Beide vormen geven een "verplichting" aan > er "moet" iets. 

You will often hear must and have to used interchangeably in the Present Simple. 

You're more likely to hear must  used in British English, and have to used in American English.
