El segundo verbo modal es should.

Es muy
importante dominarlo, ya que es una de las palabras
que más oirás y utilizarás en inglés.
Should se utiliza para recomendar hacer algo y para
afirmar si nos parece que algo es como debería ser o
no.

El segundo verbo modal es should. Es muy importante


dominarlo, ya que es una de las palabras que más
oirás y utilizarás en inglés.

Should se utiliza para recomendar hacer algo y para


afirmar si nos parece que algo es como debería ser o
no.

Como todos los verbos modales, should va


acompañado del infinitivo del verbo principal sin to.

You should get some more sleep.


The world should be.
Para formar la negación se añade not después de
should y, al contrario que en el caso de might, casi
siempre se contrae en la forma negativa.
Te recordamos que los verbos modales no toman la s
en la 3ª persona del singular ni adoptan una forma
diferente en tiempos pasados ni se combinan con el
auxiliar do en preguntas o negaciones.

Aunque should y must significan deber en castellano,


tienen sentidos muy distintos. Fíjate: A good student
should study hard (Un buen alumno debe(ría) estudiar
mucho) y A Vaughan student must study hard (Un
alumno Vaughan debe estudiar mucho).
The second modal verb is should. It is very important to
master it, since it is one of the words that you will hear
and use the most in English.

Should is used to recommend doing something and to


state whether we think something is as it should be or
not.

Like all modal verbs, should is accompanied by the


infinitive of the main verb without to.

You should get some more sleep.


The world should be.

To form the negation, not is added after should and,


unlike might, it is almost always contracted in the
negative form.

We remind you that modal verbs do not take the s in


the 3rd person singular, nor do they take a different
form in the past tense, nor are they combined with the
auxiliary do in questions or negations.
Although should and must mean duty in Spanish, they
have very different meanings. See: A good student
should study hard and A Vaughan student must study
hard.
