➙ In the above sentence am, has, didn't all are auxiliary verbs. They help us to form a tense or an expression. They combine with present or past participle or with infinites to form the tense of ordinary verbs.
✵ The model auxiliary do not change with the number or person of the subject. The cannot be used in continuous sentences. We use modals to express our moods, manners, etc.
