Modals are helping verbs that express possibility, ability, duty, permission or advisability. Words like can, could, may, might, must and should – and even will – are all modals. But modals also include something called "phrasal modals" – phrases such as has to, ought to and be supposed to. Also in English, all sentences are in either “active” or “passive” voice. In an active sentence, the person or thing responsible for the action in the sentence comes first. In a passive sentence, the person or thing acted on comes first, and the actor is added at the end, introduced with the preposition “by.” The passive form of the verb is signaled by a form of “to be”: in the sentence above, “was formulated” is in passive voice while “formulated” is in active.
In a passive sentence, we often omit the actor completely. Learning these grammar structures is not too difficult. But i find the topic phrasal verbs rather difficult because the meaning of the phrasal verb cannot be deduced from its elements, they have more than one meaning and there are difficulties with the grammar of phrasal verbs, particularly with the position of the particles.
