okay so hi class how are you um i'm going to explain you uh the second part of grammar of 00:00:06
this unit six which is uh mainly focused on modal verbs okay concretely may might and could so 00:00:15
So, this type of modal verbs express probability and permission, okay? 00:00:27
I have to say that these three modal verbs are quite similar. 00:00:35
So, I understand that sometimes we really don't know which of them should we use, okay? 00:00:43
but I'll try to explain you as easy as possible and we'll practice these three 00:00:54
modal verbs in class so don't worry don't be afraid of them okay so let's 00:01:05
move on so differences between them okay so it says in order to understand we 00:01:11
could say that could expresses a 60% of possibility so there are different type 00:01:21
of rates so a 60% so is the the one that expresses the most probabilities of 00:01:28
something or of that mean that something happened may a 50 yeah and might a 30 00:01:38
percent so this is I mean this has the less possibilities that something 00:01:47
happened okay and I have to say that you have to bear in mind that they are not 00:01:55
followed by an infinitive for example you cannot say for example I could to 00:02:00
go say to no no that's forbidden so I could go so this means that they are 00:02:12
just followed with the with a verb without to or without ending in ing okay 00:02:21
no so um let's let's move on may okay i put this uh images because for me 00:02:29
it's easier to remember something like may yeah may so we use may when something has a 50 percent 00:02:44
as we previously said of our ability to happen so in fact it's quite possible yeah it's quite 00:02:54
possible so yeah it's also used as permission okay not only probability but 00:02:59
also permission so examples of sentences so it may rain tomorrow well right now 00:03:06
these days I have been raining cats and dogs so it may rain tomorrow yeah it's 00:03:14
quite possible or may I go to the toilet because you are used to say can I go to 00:03:23
the toilet and it's not correct okay you must say may I go to the toilet because 00:03:33
could also expresses an ability of course you can you can because you have 00:03:40
two legs yes you can but may I go that is that I mean that includes permission 00:03:45
okay it's used as permission so may i go to a toilet sure or may i open the window 00:03:53
because i i am hot teacher or okay so may yeah why not yeah uh 50 percent of possibilities 00:04:01
might we use might when something has around 30 percent of possibilities to happen 00:04:13
so it's not very probable to that to happen in i mean to happen so examples of sentences 00:04:24
he may might not come tomorrow he might not come tomorrow because for example you have a friend 00:04:33
that is ill or is sick and you i mean you are not sure that he's not going to come to your house 00:04:41
but i it's it's quite possible he will stay um home so he might not come tomorrow or 00:04:53
she might be interested on you i don't know depending on the situation maybe she's interested 00:05:05
on you she or he or whatever but it's like yeah i'm not sure if okay so it's like might is when 00:05:16
you you are not sure when you think that you have more that something has more probabilities 00:05:25
that is not going to happen then that is going to happen okay and then could so we use could 00:05:32
when there's around 60% of possibilities besides could apart from being the past of can can could 00:05:43
could it acts as possibility and ability okay as I previously said can I go to the toilet yes you 00:05:52
can because you can you can walk or you can you can but in this case for example it's 00:06:01
His ability. So examples of sentences. He could fall in love. Oh yes. Maybe he or she, whatever. He's living a situation in which everything is going to be fine and he or she is meeting another person. 00:06:13
and I'm giving an example and well he could fall in love or she could fall in 00:06:38
love or something like that could you lend me your book like mmm 00:06:46
could you lend me your book can I could I mean can I could you give me your the 00:06:52
The robber could, okay, it's like, puedes, puedes dejarme, puedes prestarme el libro. 00:07:02
Or, she couldn't sleep yesterday, couldn't, aquí, un inciso, es de could, couldn't, que couldn't sería la contracción de could not, es, actúa como un verbo en pasado. 00:07:09
Y para que lo podáis diferenciar bien de un verbo modal a un verbo en pasado, 00:07:24
generalmente en las frases en las que está el verbo en pasado, 00:07:31
os añade algo, una pista, de que algo está en pasado. 00:07:36
Por ejemplo, yesterday or last week we could swim. 00:07:40
O nos van a decir she could sleep. 00:07:44
Sería raro, pero también... 00:07:47
Bueno, podría ser, pero vamos, it's not going to happen in the exam, okay? 00:07:50
Because I know you are going to be, ah, how am I going to see the differences? 00:07:58
Okay, it's normally you just see something that gives you a clue to see that it's in past, okay? 00:08:04
So, slight differences, as I said at the beginning, sometimes we feel they are the same words 00:08:13
we can use them indistinctly, okay? A veces podemos usar este tipo de 00:08:20
verbos modales de forma indistinta porque a veces hay pequeñas diferencias y 00:08:32
muchas veces, a no ser que sea algo como muy evidente, podemos usar ambos, tanto 00:08:39
So, may and might, or could. 00:08:47
Pero, dice, but most of the time they depend on the context, ¿sí? 00:08:50
Es decir, el hecho de que usemos unos u otros depende mucho del contexto. 00:08:55
Es decir, de lo que rodea a esa frase. 00:09:02
Si yo os pongo un ejemplo de frase de la que no sabemos muy bien todo el contexto, 00:09:07
We could say, let's see, here I can use may or might, because both are fine, and surely both would be fine, but many times knowing the context helps to choose some or others. 00:09:17
For example, here I have put some examples that are very simple, I hope not to make spoilers and I imagine that you have all seen The Little Mermaid, but well, it was an example that occurred to me like that, more or less simple. 00:09:35
So, we know that the Little Mermaid, there are a series of characters that are Ariel, that are Flanders, that are Ursula, Triton, well, well, Ursula here has the role of the villain of the film, and Ariel and Flanders are my friends. 00:09:53
So, as we know that Ariel and Ursula don't get along very well, or that Ursula doesn't have an attitude that is very friendly with Ariel, 00:10:11
then, here I have put an example to see if it can be more or less clear. 00:10:25
Úrsula wants to invite Ariel to eat an ice cream. 00:10:32
Úrsula quiere invitar a Ariel a comer un helado. 00:10:40
So, Ariel, say yes. 00:10:46
Así que, Ariel, aquí tenéis que, en estos puntos extensivos, tendríais que añadir may, might or could. 00:10:49
según el contexto que nosotros ya tenemos 00:10:57
de cómo se llevan y de la película y demás 00:11:02
siguiente 00:11:05
Flounder wants to invite Ariel to eat an ice cream 00:11:07
so Ariel, say yes 00:11:11
Flounder is her friend 00:11:14
la quiere invitar a comer un helado 00:11:17
así que Ariel, no sé qué, sí 00:11:20
Then, Ariel and Flounder go to investigate a shipwreck. 00:11:23
A shipwreck is un naufragio, ¿vale? 00:11:32
Entonces, para que, bueno, le dais al pause, vamos a pensar, pensáis un momentito cuáles podrían ser las opciones, ¿vale? 00:11:34
Y ahora le dais al play y os la tengo en su. 00:11:47
So, the number one, teniendo en cuenta cómo se llevan, pues Úrsula quiere invitar a Ariel a tomar un helado. 00:11:50
Pues a ver, está Ariel, pues hombre, ¿que le puede decir que sí? 00:12:00
Bueno, pues sí, pero yo, personalmente, lo que pondría sería, so Ariel might say yes. 00:12:09
Pues, a ver, pues hay como que un 30% de posibilidades, ¿no? 00:12:18
Que le diga que sí. 00:12:23
Igual sí, pero más bien que no, ¿no? 00:12:26
Así que, bueno, might say yes. 00:12:28
Flounder wants to invite Ariel to eat an ice cream, so Ariel may say yes. 00:12:31
Hombre, es bastante probable que Ariel, pues sí, que seguramente le diga que sí, ¿no? 00:12:37
Que se vayan a tomar un helado. 00:12:44
Bueno, un helado, también he puesto yo un ejemplo. 00:12:45
Unas algas, da igual. 00:12:47
O lo que sea, no sé. 00:12:49
And, 00:12:52
I live in Flanders, 00:12:53
go to investigate a shipwreck. 00:12:54
I live in Flanders, 00:13:00
no sé qué ir 00:13:02
a investigar un naufragio. 00:13:03
Un barco hundido. 00:13:06
Hombre, pues, 00:13:08
aquí yo pondría could go, 00:13:10
porque sí, 00:13:12
porque puede, 00:13:13
porque es bastante probable que se vayan a nadar por ahí a investigar, 00:13:14
con lo que le gusta a Ariel, ¿cómo se dice esto? 00:13:19
Ah, y coleccionar cachivaches, como dicen, ¿no? 00:13:24
Entonces, bueno, estas serían las opciones. 00:13:28
Yo creo que así puede quedarnos un poquito más claro. 00:13:30
De todas formas, we will practice and we will see different examples 00:13:32
to have them very clear, okay? 00:13:38
so yeah this is the end so good luck I wish you the best so I know you're going to do it 00:13:40
super good and trust yourself okay so thank you very much and see you in class bye bye 00:13:49
