Modal Verbs

I went to Jim's blog and I have got a modal verbs website that make me understand clearly about it.

http://www.englishpage.com/modals/can.html


Common Modal Verbs
Can
Could
May
Might
Must
Ought to
Shall
Should
Will
Would

Modal verb meanings in my understanding.

Modal meanings are related in a general way to attitude, capability or point of view. They include:
ability : He can lift that car
willingness : I will do it for him
permission : You may go now
obligation :I should visit my mother more often
necessity: You have to start the engine first
probability : He should be there by now
possibility : I
might leave tomorrow


Thank you Jim for posting a Great website
