Must may and might compared

Most teachers are probably familiar with a list of modals similar to the one offered in Headway Intermediate: can, could, may, might, will, would, shall, should, and ought. Teachers would also probably agree with the explanation given by Headway, namely that these verbs are auxiliaries because “they ‘help’ another verb” (Soars and Soars, 1996: 146). For good measure, Headway tells students that “each modal has at least two meanings” (ibid.: 147).
