Explanation
‘Must’ is a modal verb that is used to express something necessary and very important; to say that something is likely or logical; when we realize that something is certainly true; to express a wish; and for recommendations. For example to tell people a rule or law, we use this modal.
‘Should’ is classified as a modal verb. There are some other modal verbs such as could, may, might, must, shall, should, will, and would. These verbs are used to express possibility, permission, ability, request, offer, suggestion, wishes, etc. In Simple conjugation only bare infinitive is used with them, (modal+ v1). We use should to say what is the best thing or the right thing to do.
