Тема 8. МОДАЛЬНЫЕ ГЛАГОЛЫ (MODALS)

Модальные глаголы в английском языке отличаются от остальных глаголов. Они не являются полнозначными глаголами и не могут употребляться в роли самостоятельного сказуемого. В предложении модальные глаголы являются частью составного модального сказуемого.

Модальные глаголы отражают отношение говорящего к действию: оценку действия как «возможное, необходимое, разрешаемое, просимое, запрещенное, приказываемое, маловероятное, очень вероятное и т. д.».
