English - 19 January

Modals

 Modals are short for modal auxiliaries (Dutch: hulpwerkwoorden van modaliteit). Modals can express obligation (Dutch: verplichting), necessity (Dutch: noodzaak) or permission (Dutch: toestemming) and prohibition (Dutch: verbod). 

Modals

Main verbs (walk, eat) can change depending on the past or present (walked, ate), but you can use modals to talk about being able to do something, permissions and requests.
