A modal verb is a type of verb that is used to indicate modality – that is: likelihood, ability, permission, request, capacity, suggestions, order and obligation, and advice etc. They always take base form of verb with them.[1] Examples include the English verbs can/could, may/might, must, will/would and shall/should/ought. In English and other Germanic languages, modal verbs are often distinguished as a class based on certain grammatical properties.
