Syntax with Modals What is it?Adding a modal verb (will, could, should, etc) to your sentence changes the word order. The RulesThe word order is:
S = Subject (the do'er)
Mod = Modal Verb (e.g. 'could','should','would',etc)
(Neg = Negation)
V = Verb (the action) Examples
Notice here that when adding a modal verb the negation moves position so it's between the two verbs. |
