Page 1 focuses on introducing modal verbs and their primary functions in English. It begins by listing the main modal auxiliary verbs: will, would, shall, should, can, could, ought (to), may, might, and must. The page also mentions other expressions that function similarly to modal verbs, such as "be supposed to," "had better," and "need."

The text explains that modal verbs are used to discuss expectations, possibilities, necessities, desires, and events that may or may not happen. It provides specific examples of how different modal verbs are used in various contexts. For instance, "must" is used to express certainty or high probability, while "can't" is used to indicate impossibility.

Example: "Emily must have a problem" expresses high certainty, while "It can't be Emily" indicates impossibility.

Vocabulary: Deduction - the process of drawing a conclusion based on evidence or reasoning.

The page also touches on the use of modal verbs in the past tense, introducing the structure "must have + past participle" for making deductions about past events.

Highlight: The czasowniki modalne angielski tabelka (modal verbs English table) presented on this page serves as a quick reference for the main modal verbs and their uses.

Page 3 focuses on the more nuanced uses of "might" and "could," particularly in relation to past possibilities and conditional meanings. It explains that "might" and "could" can have a conditional meaning, equivalent to "would perhaps" in certain contexts.

The page notes that "could" is not typically used to discuss past possibilities, except in indirect speech. Instead, the text introduces the structure "may/might/could have + past participle" to talk about possibilities in the past.

Example: "She might have missed the train" suggests a past possibility.

This structure is used to express that something possibly happened or was true in the past, but the speaker is not certain. It's a crucial form for discussing hypothetical past situations or making deductions about past events based on limited information.

Highlight: The use of past modal verbs adds depth to discussions about historical possibilities and hypothetical scenarios.

The page concludes by reinforcing the importance of these more complex modal structures in advanced English usage, particularly in academic or professional contexts where nuanced expression of possibility and probability is essential.

Vocabulary: Conditional meaning - expressing that the action depends on certain conditions or circumstances.

Page 2 delves deeper into the usage of specific modal verbs and their functions in making deductions and predictions. It explains that "will" is used to express certainty about the future, while "should" and "ought to" suggest probability.

The text emphasizes that "must" is not often used for predictions about the future. Instead, "may," "might," and "could" are commonly used to express uncertainty or to make guesses about future events. The page also introduces the use of "be supposed to" to talk about things that are normal or expected.

Example: "It may rain tomorrow" expresses uncertainty about future weather.

For past deductions, the page introduces the structure "should have / ought to have + past participle." This form is used to make conclusions about past events based on present knowledge.

Definition: Indirect speech - reporting what someone else has said without using their exact words.

The text also mentions the use of "may/might not" and "can't" in negative contexts to express the possibility or impossibility of something happening or being true.

Highlight: Understanding the nuances between different modal verbs is crucial for expressing varying degrees of certainty in czasowniki modalne angielski ćwiczenia (modal verbs English exercises).
