Modal Auxiliary Verbs © Kara Lee 2014

Modal Auxiliary Verbs Some verbs need more than one word to make their meaning more clear. They may need a main action verb and one or more helping verbs. Modal auxiliaries are helping verbs with special meanings. They include can, may, must, shall, and will. They clarify how certain an action is. © Kara Lee

Modal Auxiliary Verb Tenses Remember that tense refers to the time something is taking place – past, present, or future. Just like action verbs, modal auxiliary verbs are sometimes different based on the tense of the sentence. © Kara Lee

Modal Meanings When you add a modal auxiliary to a sentence, you are making the meaning of the action verb more clear. The following slide will show you the meanings of the modal auxiliary verbs and how they specify how certain an action is. © Kara Lee
