Goals

• I know what a 'modal verb' is.
• I know when to use a 'modal verb' and I can use them in sentences.

Modal verbs - kunnen

Can = alleen in present (I can help her)

Als iets kan.

Modal verbs - Mogen

Mogen (toestemming hebben), zou kunnen =  could

Can = informeel (Can I stay here a little bit longer? / Dad says I can stay late)

Could = formeel (Could I have more food? / Dad said I could stay until 11 p.m)

Could gebruik je ook bij de verleden tijd.

Modal verbs - mogelijk

Mogelijk (iets kan bijvoorbeeld tijdelijk wel of niet) = to be able to

I am not able to walk because I broke my leg, but I will be able to soon

Try it yourself!!
