- Modal verbs as Might, May, Could and Must are different ways to say maybe or we use it when we want to make a guess about something.
Examples:
- She might be at home.
- I may be late.
- The keys could be in the car.
- You must go to the doctor.
- Could and can are used to ask questions about present possibility. Might is very uncommon. Use be in short answers to questions containing be.
Example: - Could she be working? She might be.
- Can it be true? It must not be.
- Will and won't when we are very sure.
- They will be at home now.
- Should | Shouldn't are used when we want to make an assumption about something that is probably true. Also we used it when we want to give an advise.
-You shouldn't do that, it's dangerous.
- My husband should be there by now.
