Answer:

Modals (also called modal verbs, mo

dal auxiliary verbs, modal auxiliaries) are special verbs which behave irregularly in English. They are different from normal verbs like "work, play, visit..." They give additional information about the function of the main verb that follows it.

  • Examples of modal verbs include can, could, may, might, must, shall, should, will and would. Adverbs that modify these verbs say something about possibility, obligation, and emphasis. Remember that modal adverbs cannot be negated, and they are not used in questions.
