CONTENIDOS TEMTICOS

MODALS
FOR REQUESTS AND OFFERS

MODALS

INTRODUCTION

These four questions are made with modal verbs:

Would you... ?
Could you... ?
Will you... ?
Can you... ?
Modal verbs are helping/auxiliary verbs that express
ideas like ability, permission, and asking for
assistance. Many modal verbs have more than one
meaning. They are always followed by the simple
form of a verb.

 For example:
1.-Could you help me for a minute, please?
This shows that the speaker is asking for help
politely.
2.-To ask questions in a very polite way, use: Would
you/ Could you (please) + simple verb + ...?
For example:
Would you please email that document to me?
I need it as soon as possible.
Could you explain that again, please? I didnt
understand.

WILL YOU / CAN YOU

1.-To ask questions in a polite but more casual way,
say:
Will you/ Can you (please) + simple verb + ...?
For example:
Will you please answer the phone? Im working.
Can you hold my books for me? My hands are full.

ANSWERS

The word please makes the request more polite and less direct. Canadians use please
often and visitors are expected to ask for help politely, using please.
Possible positive answers to the questions above:
Yes. Yes certainly.
Certainly. Yes, of course.
Of course. Id be happy to.
Id be glad to.
My pleasure.
Informally, we can say:
Sure.
Okay.
Uh-huh. (means yes)
To answer negatively, we say:
No.
Sorry.
No, Im sorry. I cant.
Sorry, I cant. Im busy right now.
Id like to, but I cant.
Id love to, but Im busy right now.
