Understanding the uses of SHOULD, the uses of WOULD and the uses of COULD for specific purposes is essential if you are to speak with these words fluently in English speaking. That’s what this video is about. It teaches you some of the most important situations in genuine English conversation when you’d use SHOULD, WOULD or COULD (as well as CAN) in your speaking.

I couldn't say how frightened I would be if I get bitten by a snake.

This is such a useful video!
What a great concept: we've finally learnt the rules of "should, would and could" and now, as you put it, we can use them in the real world.
Thank so much!
Thank you Fabiana! I'm glad you found it so useful 😀
Good lesson, thank you🌟
Thank you for letting me know 🙂
Good evening! How refreshing and compelling you are! Listening to you is just like listening to Michael Swans books. The way you explain rules is just astounding, not to mention your voice. You remind me of Neil Tennant meeting Ian Mackellen drinking coffee with Foster. Thank you so much for your lessons. Giorgio :-)
Thanks so much Giorgio! That was a really kind thing to say 🙂🙂
@@EnglishwithRupert You deserve each single word I wrote to you, they were heartfelt! You could add a lesson about the use of might 🙂 A most interesting verbs that may cause a severe nervous breakdown! 🙂 " he might have gone to France 2000 times but she hasn't yet worked out to say good morning in French (just a stupid example). Have a beautiful day Sir Rupert Grammarson 🙂Giorgio

Sir there are more than 25 uses of the model verb would and could in English, can you please cover all the uses and put real life example you could add movie clips and any conversation clips
Hi! Did you find my video on modal verbs from a few months ago? It covers lots of meanings of modals
Thanks
You're welcome as always 🙂
... I can understand your explanation of the rules and I can see how the illustrative examples conform to the rules ... still, I am not sure at all that I could apply the rules correctly - a test would be nice, if you will... ...
That's a good idea. I can't change the video, but I can type one in the description. Would you like that?
@@EnglishwithRupert ... very much, thank you ...
Hi Vladimir - I haven't forgotten about the test - I will try to find time soon and then let you know! 🙂
@@EnglishwithRupert ... looking forward to it ...
I have added a short test on the SHOULD/WOULD/COULD video. It's in the description with answers now :)
