Modals , phrasal verbs and passive voice are also important in Emglish Grammar . Unit 18 , not only elaborate on how the above are used in English Grammar but also gives some ideas and aids on how to go about it in teaching . Modals are can , could , may. might, need to , ought to , etc and they are used before other verbs to add or give more meaning to the main verbs.Modals can be used to express; obligation, necessity ,permission /prohibation,ability and advice .It good to note that modals dont change in form according to person.i ha rve learnt that i can use the following in teaching modals ' role play , rules, signs. Furthermore in this unit , The passive voice (there are two voices used in English) Passive and Active voice In the active voice the focus is on the agent whils in the passive voice the object of an active verb becomes of the subjectof a passive verb.Forms of the passive voice ( present simple = is /are+past participle( passive) .
