Read and examine the
sentences below:
1. His 75-year-old mother is too old to
ride a horse.
2. His 75-year-old mother might be too
old to ride a horse.
What have you noticed in sentences 1
and 2?
Do they have the same meaning? If
not, what is their difference?
 Sentences 1 and 2 have different meanings. Sentence 1
states a fact that his mother is too old for horseback riding.
Sentence 2 expresses the possibility that his mother could no
longer do horseback riding due to her age.

 The presence of the word ‘might’ in sentence 2 makes the

meaning different. The word‘might ’is an example of a modal
expression that functions as a verb.

 Aside from might, there are other commonly used modal

expressions that function asa verb, like may, can, could, shall,
should, will, and would.
