Paul, who has an Australian accent, shares what he's noticed about the differences between the English spoken in England and in the USA.

Modal verbs are special verbs that go together with action verbs to indicate ability, permission, obligation and more. Let's see how they work.

Every modal verb is a bit different and not all of them can be used in all tenses. We use "may" for permission, but we can use "can" and its conditional form "could" as well.

When do we use "should" and "could"? At the end of the video, you'll also find a preview of the next 2 videos where modals are used in everyday speech for discussing probability.

Sigrid has lost a couple of important items and is trying to think where they might be. In this part, she has lost her car key. She uses plenty of modal verbs to tell her story, including modal verbs expressing probability.

Now Sigrid has also lost her glasses! In this final part, learn how to use modal verbs to express probability, and find out whether she finds the missing items.

This video clearly presents some fundamental differences between American English, British English, and Australian English in terms of spelling, pronunciation, and vocabulary.
