MODALS OF DEDUCTION AND ADJECTIUVES SUFIXES
- ADJECTIVES
SUFFIXES:we often use
a noun plus a suffix to
make an adjective. we
often use -ful to form
adjectives that mean
"with "or "full of" and less
to form adjectives that
mean "without".
- FULL:
- The suffix -ful has been derived from the English word "full" and the literal meaning is
"full of". Some meanings are can be a little more abstract and it may be harder to
understand the meaning the first time you meet these words.
- for example:power→ powerful
- for example:power→ powerful
- The suffix -ful has been derived from the English word "full" and the literal meaning is
"full of". Some meanings are can be a little more abstract and it may be harder to
understand the meaning the first time you meet these words.
- LESS:
- The suffix -less has been derived from the English word "less" and the literal meaning
is "without" or "lacking". Some meanings are more abstract. For example the suffix -less
can mean "unable to act or be acted on in a specified way"
- for example:law→ lawless
- for example:law→ lawless
- The suffix -less has been derived from the English word "less" and the literal meaning
is "without" or "lacking". Some meanings are more abstract. For example the suffix -less
can mean "unable to act or be acted on in a specified way"
- FULL:
- MODALS OF DEDUCTION: We use modal verbs
to say how sure we are about something.
- We use must when we feel sure that something is true because there’s
very strong evidence. EXAMPLE:He must live near here because he comes to work
on foot. We don’t know where he lives but we’re sure it’s not far away.
- We use must when we feel sure that something is true because there’s
very strong evidence. EXAMPLE:He must live near here because he comes to work
on foot. We don’t know where he lives but we’re sure it’s not far away.
- might, may, could
- We use might, may or could to say that
we think something is possible but we’re
not sure.
- EXAMPLE:Don’t put it up there. It could fall off and hit
someone. Might, may and could are also followed by an
infinitive without ‘to’.
- EXAMPLE:Don’t put it up there. It could fall off and hit
someone. Might, may and could are also followed by an
infinitive without ‘to’.
- We use might, may or could to say that
we think something is possible but we’re
not sure.
- can’t
- We use can’t when we feel sure something is not true.
- EXAMPLE: It can’t be a burglar. All the doors and windows
are locked. He doesn’t know it’s not a burglar but he feels
sure it’s not.
- EXAMPLE: It can’t be a burglar. All the doors and windows
are locked. He doesn’t know it’s not a burglar but he feels
sure it’s not.
- We use can’t when we feel sure something is not true.
- In the same way that we use
modal verbs to say how certain
we are about things in the
present we can also use them to
speculate about the past.
- (‘have done’, ‘have been’
have stolen’ etc.) is
called the perfect
infinitive
- must + perfect infinitive We use
must + perfect infinitive when we feel
sure about something in the past.
EXAMPLE:You must have been delighted
when you heard you’d won the lottery.
- might/may/could + perfect
infinitive: We use might, may or
could with the perfect infinitive
to say that we think something
was possible but we aren’t
sure.
- can’t + perfect
infinitive We use can’t
+ perfect infinitive:
when we feel sure
something didn’t happen
in the past.
- might/may/could + perfect
infinitive: We use might, may or
could with the perfect infinitive
to say that we think something
was possible but we aren’t
sure.
- must + perfect infinitive We use
must + perfect infinitive when we feel
sure about something in the past.

when you heard you’d won the lottery.
- (‘have done’, ‘have been’
