    A little about me:
    My name's Minoo, and I'm originally from Iran.
    I obtained my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) Diploma in England in 1985.
    Since then, I've been an English teacher, teacher trainer, and course director in various schools and countries. I'm also a trained confidence coach.
    In 2008, my son, Tom, and I set up the Anglo-Link platform for online English studies.
    This led to the creation of our popular RUclips channel in 2011.
    My passion is to share with you what I've learnt on my own English language journey, both as a student and as a teacher, so that you can become a fluent speaker of English too.
    Join the Anglo-Link Community at app.anglo-link....

    My favorite English channel. I was studying English (In a private school) when all this situation with the covid started and unfortunately, the classes were canceled until next year. I was sad, but, I noticed that I have a lot of problems with basic grammar (such as modals, adverbs, conditional...)
    Fortunately, I found your channel.
    I want to say, thank you! You're an amazing teacher, and for your smile I think that you're a nice person too.

    I have almost always had the confusion with the usage of modals but now it's almost clear except the usage of "should"
    I mean can we use "should" as a polite request and if we can which is more polite "shall or should"

    Sorry to be a bee in your bonnet, however, you have made a huge mistake in explaining the difference between MUST and HAVE TO. Being an English teacher here in Italy, and teaching students (due to the fact that the English 'Italian' teacher are incompetent) this page was given to my student by his 'English' teacher.
    must not/mustn't
    We use must not to talk about what is not permitted. It is common on public signs and notices informing people of rules and laws. (you video says that this is used in have to...which is NOT true)
    This is quite confusing and you need to fix it!

    Could/would you look up her number, please? Isn’t MAY correct mam??

      No, 'may' is not used to make a request. It's used to ask for permission: May I have your number, please?

    Permission and prohibition (past).
    Ma'am you have used 'to+infinitive' after 'couldn't'. I think it isn't correct to use 'to+infinitive' after a modal verb. Please help!

    • @AngloLinkEnglish
      @AngloLinkEnglish  5 лет назад +5

      I'm sorry! That's a typing error. You're right: There's no 'to' after 'could'.

      I think It was meant to be between the brackets (we were not allowed to..).

    How can i use Had better and modal verbs + have?

  • @MRSHOAIBJEE
    @MRSHOAIBJEE 4 года назад +5

    Hello Ma'am,
    You have mentioned in your video that "have to" is semi-modal verb. What do you think about these following verbs that are usually used in sentenses ?
    1. Used to
    2. Had better
    3. Dare
    4. Need
    5. Will be able
    6. Supposed to
    Are these above verbs are also semi-modal or what ?
    Please expedite.

    • @AngloLinkEnglish
      @AngloLinkEnglish  4 года назад +4

      Hello Shoaib,
      Actually, I shouldn't have said that 'have to' is a semi-modal. It's an ordinary verb that functions like a modal.
      Grammar books only recognise 'dare' and 'need' as semi-modals because they can be used as a modal or an ordinary verb:
      I don't need / dare to do it . = I needn't / daren't do it.
      Therefore, the other four on your list aren't semi-modals either.
