It also covers the simple present tense with other verbs like work, chat in affirmative and negative statements and questions. Finally, it reviews question words like who, what, when, where, why, how, how much/many and provides examples of their use in questions with the simple present tense.
Modal verbs
Modal verbs are helping verbs that provide additional information about the main verb that follows. They indicate things like ability, permission, possibility, obligation, future tense, and more. Some key points about modal verbs:
1. They don't use 's' for third person singular like normal verbs.
2. They make questions through subject-verb inversion like "can she go?"
3. They are followed directly by the infinitive form of the main verb without using "to."
Modal verbs have different meanings - may, can, should are used to talk about permission, advice, and possibility. Must and have to express obligation. Modal verbs also indicate levels of certainty from certain to possible.
