Lucy today I've got a grammar video for

今天，我有一个语法视频给大家

you I know it's been a while since I did

我知道又过了挺长时间了，自从我做的

a grammar video but a lot of you have

上一个语法视频以来，但是很多人

asked for a video on modal verbs so here

要求做一个情态动词的视频，所以

it is today I'm going to introduce you

这个就是啦。今天我要给大家介绍

to modal verbs i'm going to tell you the

情态动词。我要介绍情态动词的

rules how to use them when to use them

规则，怎么使用、何时使用它们。

do note that there are a lot of

请一定要注意，有很多

different situations in which you need

不同的情形，需要

to use different modal verbs and it would

使用不同的情态动词，并且

be impossible for me to go through them

我不可能把它们都讲完

all so this is an introduction and

所以这仅仅是一个介绍

hopefully you will leave the lesson

希望你学完这一课

feeling a lot more comfortable when

能更加自如地

using modal verbs let's get started

使用情态动词。那就开始吧

so firstly what are modal verbs well

首先，什么情态动词？

they are part of a larger category

它们是一个叫做“助动词”的词类下面的

called auxiliary verbs and these are verbs

一个小类，这些动词会给

that add meaning to another verbnow modal

其他动词增添一些意义。

verbs are special because they follow a

情态动词是特殊的，因为它们遵循着

strict set of rules and they are used in a

一套严格的规则，它们的使用方法

very specific way I'm going to talk

也很特殊。我今天要跟大家谈

about the nine modal verbs today don't

九个情态动词。不要把它们

get them confused with the semi models

跟“半情态动词”搞混了

that only follow some of the modal verb

因为它们只需遵守情态动词的一部分规则。

rules now if I ask you right now to tell

好的，如果我现在就请大家告诉我

me the nine modal verbs would you be

这九个情态动词，能说出来吗？

able to tell me them if you can

如果能说出来

that's great but for those who can't

那就太棒了，但如果说不出来

I've got a really easy way of

我有一个非常简单的方法

remembering them we've got 3 m's 2 w's

记住它们，就是：三个M，两个W

to c's and two s' so when you

两个C，以及两个S。所以当你

write them out in a pattern it's much

用这种方式把它们写下来，就会

much easier to remember them all

更轻松地把它们都记住

so we've got the 3 m's we've got must

先看三个M，分别是must、

might and may we've then got the 2 w's will

might和may，然后是两个W，will

and would we then got the 2 c's can and

和would，接下来是两个C，can和could

could and then the two S's shall and

再然后是两个S：shall和should

should remember will and would our

请记住，will和would有点儿特别

special in spoken and informal language

在口语和非正式的语言中

they can be contracted so will can turn

它们可以缩写，will可以写成

into ' Double L i will i'll and would

两个“L”，i will可写成i‘ll，would

can turn into apostrophe D so we have

可以写成一撇加字母D，所以

she would she'd now the majority of

she would可写成she'd。大多数

these modal verbs express different

情态动词表达不同的含义

meaning depending on

取决于上下文

the context so you really have to

所以你一定要

understand the sentence or question as a

把理解句子或问题当做一个

whole

整体

I'm going to help you with this today later

今天我就要帮大家了解这些。稍后

on in the video we can talk about the

的视频中我们会谈到

different meanings that each modal verb

每个情态动词的不同的含义

can express but firstly we need to go

但首先，我们需要

through the rules

了解一下这些规则，

what can you do with them what can't you

能怎么用，不能怎么用

do with them without these rules you're

如果没有这些规则，你会发现

going to find it very difficult to use

情态动词很难

them but the good news is that all of

但是好消息是，所有这些

these rules apply to the nine modal

规则均适用于九个情态动词

verbs that we're looking at in this

也就是我们这次课讲到的全部。

lesson so rule number one infinitives come

规则1：动词不定式出现在

after modal verbs but without to ok so

情态动词之后，但是不带to，所以

we're saying i might eat pizza

我们可以说：我也许吃披萨。

I can play football rule number 2 modal

我会踢足球。规则2：情态动词的

verbs take no s in the third person

单数第三人称不加s

singular she must leave or it might

她必须离开。或：它可能

happen

发生。

rule number three modal verbs do not

规则3：情态动词不会

change their form according to tense so

随着时态发生词形变化，所以

they've got no past form and they've got

它们没有过去式，也没有

no future form it just stays the same so

将来式，它们始终不变。所以

the easy way of remembering it is modal

记住它们的简单的方法是：情态动词

verbs don't change they stay exactly as

不变形，它们总是原形。

they are so rule number four we use

规则4：我们在

modal verbs in negative sentences like

否定句中使用情态动词

we do with other auxiliary verbs ie

跟其他助动词是一样的，即

without the word do so the way we use

没有“do”，所以我们在否定句里使用

modal verbs in negative sentences is

情态动词的句型是：

subject modal verb not verb

主语+情态动词+not+动词

let's look at some examples you must not

让我们来看一些例子：you must not

eat my food

eat my food

you must not eat my food or i can not

你不能吃我的食物。或：I can not

speak French

speak French

I cannot speak French so it's always in

我不会说法语。所以它总是

that order

这样的语序

just like we would with other auxiliary

就像其他助动词一样

verbs now remember you must learn the

现在，还请记住，你必须学会​​情态动词

contractions for the negatives which are

否定式的缩略形式

used quite frequently in spokane or

它们常常出现在口语或

informal language might might not

非正式的交流中：might，might not

mightn't must must not mustn't may may not

mightn't；must，must not，mustn't； may，may not，

no contraction

无缩略形式。

can cannot can't could could not

can，cannot，can't；could，could not，

缩略形式。规则5：

easy now we've looked at number four

知道了规则4就很简单了

with interrogative phrases modal verbs

在疑问句当中，情态动词
