MODALS AND SEMI-MODALS

What is the difference between the two sentences? 1. I can do homework when I come back from school. 2. I must do homework when I come back from school.

After a modal we use a verb in its base form.

Modals: 1. Can – יכול I can swim very well. 2. May – אולי I may come to your party. 3. Might – אולי It might rain tomorrow. 4. Should – צריך I should study for my test. 5. Must – חייב I must ask my parents for permission to come to the trip. 1. a. I can to meet you after school. X אחרי !! לב school. שימו b. I can meet you after V Modals כותבים את בצורת for הפועל 2. a.
