Modal Verbs
Here’s a list of the modal verbs in English:
can | could | may | might | will |
would | must | shall | should | ought to |
Modals are different from normal verbs:
1: They don’t use an ‘s’ for the third person singular.
2: They make questions by inversion (‘she can go’ becomes ‘can she go?’).
3: They are followed directly by the infinitive of another verb (without ‘to’)
