    Thanks for checking out the lesson, everyone! Leave your questions and comments below. If you’re wondering which song I’m (badly) singing at the start of this video, it’s “Should I Stay or Should I Go” by The Clash: ua-cam.com/video/BN1WwnEDWAM/v-deo.html

    "Should" can also be used to replace "if" in conditional sentences, but it's such a formal way of expressing the conditionals.

    Here's a fifth way of using "should" - the so called "emotional should": I am glad you should have mentioned that. I don't understand why she should want to go there.
    Here's a sixth way of using "should". "Should" is used in conditional phrases where the realization of the action depends on some contingency: In case you should need more information, feel free to contact me.|| Should you need more information, feel free to contact me.
    Here's a seventh way of using "should" in British English, which is called the Subjunctive Mood:
    I insist that he should do it.

    • @engvidAlex
      @engvidAlex  6 років тому +1

      Definitely "should." It means you EXPECT someone or something to be true.
      "He should be here already."
      "They should have finished by now."
