funcionar como un verbo principal, a diferencia de los
verbos auxiliares “be”, “do” y “have” que sí pueden
funcionar como un verbo principal.Los verbos modales
expresan modalidad, habilidad, posibilidad, necesidad u
otra condición. Los utilizamos para el futuro y el
condicional.Como verbos complementarios que son, los
modal verbs jose fabian
verbos modales no funcionan sin otro verbo. Este otro
verbo siempre va después del verbo modal y está en la
forma base (el infinitivo sin “to”). No se conjugan los

son :CAN, COULD,
MAY,MIGHT,WILL,SHALL,SHOULD,OUGHT TO, MUST,
