1. Must

- Cấu trúc: S + must + V nguyên thể (Ai đó phải làm gì)

- Cách dùng: Must do something thường được dịch "phải làm điều gì". Sự
bắt buộc làm gì này xuất phát từ cảm xúc cá nhân, người nói cho rằng
mình phải làm như vậy và không có lựa chọn nào khác. Nếu không, anh
ta sẽ nhận lấy một hậu quả (consequence).

Ví dụ: I must phone my sister. (Tôi phải gọi điện cho chị gái tôi - nếu
không chị sẽ giận vì tôi không quan tâm)

*Chú ý: mustn’t do st = không được làm gì

2. Need

- Cấu trúc: S + need(s) + to V (Ai đó cần làm gì)

- Cách dùng: miêu tả ai đó cần, nên làm việc gì để mang lại lợi ích
(benefit), mọi việc trở nên tốt đẹp hơn

Ví dụ: I need to do my homework. (Tôi cần làm bài tập về nhà - vì tôi cảm
thấy làm bài tập khiến tôi hiểu bài hơn)

*Chú ý: Needn’t do st = không cần thiết phải làm gì

3. Have to

- Cấu trúc: S + have/has to + V nguyên thể (Ai đó phải làm gì)

- Cách dùng: Cách diễn đạt này mang tính cấp thiết nhất. Người nói xem
việc này là một nhiệm vụ, do quy định nào đó bắt buộc. "Must do
something" mang cảm xúc chủ quan còn "have to do something" mang
tính cưỡng chế hơn

Ví dụ: I have to do my homework. (Tôi phải làm bài tập về nhà - vì giáo
viên yêu cầu, nếu không làm sẽ bị phạt)

*Chú ý: Trong nhiều trường hợp, "must" và "have to" được chấp
nhận dùng thay thế cho nhau.

4. Should

- Cấu trúc: S + should + V nguyên thể (Ai đó nên làm gì)

-Chức năng: Giúp người nói đưa ra ý kiến, lời khuyên, hoặc một đề xuất.
Nó ngụ ý rằng điều gì đó là đúng hoặc là lựa chọn tốt nhất nếu được làm
theo.

Ví dụ: I think you should limit your screen time. (Tôi nghĩ bạn nên hạn chế
thời gian sử dụng thiết bị)

Lưu ý: "should" có tính chất trang trọng nhẹ hơn so với "must," thể hiện
sự khuyến khích hơn là bắt buộc
