Chapter Five works on using modal auxiliary verbs for a variety of communication tasks. The modal auxiliary verbs are the words can, could, may, might, must, shall, should, will, and would. The activities in this section of AEGWeb practice using these words to give advice, make guesses, and write about the future.

For more information about the grammar and for discussion activities, pair and small group activities, and activities that focus on the writing and editing of past time writing, please see the printed version of Applied English Grammar.
