The Grammar Show, 26- Should

26- Should

Hello, and welcome to today's Grammar Gameshow!

I'm your host, Will!

Run, run as fast as you can,

you can't catch me,

I'm the Grammar Gameshow man!

And of course let's not forget Leslie,

our all-knowing voice in the sky.

Hello, everyone!

Tonight, we're going to ask you three questions about…

Should!

That handy modal so often used for advice!

OK! Now, let's meet our contestants!

Hello, all. My name's Bill.

And contestant number two?

Hello Will!

And hello, everyone at home.

It's so great to be here tonight!

I'm your contestant Sal!

Here for your viewing pleasure on the one, the only,

the spectacular,

Grammar Gameshow!

Well, goodness, Sal. That was quite an intro.

Isn't he fantastic? Let's give him a hand.

Thanks Will.

I used to host a game show myself

for many years.

And what great times they were.

An old hand, eh?

Great!

OK. Let's get going and don't forget,

you can play along at home too.

Like many modal verbs,

should has a variety of meanings.

Explain the use of should in these sentences.

Should I get the cheap one or the expensive one?

Well, that's should to

ask for advice or make a suggestion.

Correct!

She's out but she shouldn't be much longer.

That's should for something probable or expected.

Correct!

Everyone should wear a seat belt when driving.

Well, that's should for advice again.

Incorrect!

Wow. You got that one spectacularly wrong.

Really nose over toes there!

Isn't he fantastic?

But a good TV host should never tell a guest

they've got something wrong without softening it first.

Just like this.

Bill,

that was a fair guess, but you got it wrong. Bad luck.

But here's a high-five for trying.

Boom!

Yes. Thank you Sal. I'll take that one under advisement.

Leslie?

Good job!

Or maybe wrong?

I forget now!

Anyway, should is a modal verb

meaning it doesn't change for person or time,

and is always followed by a bare infinitive.

It can be used to offer advice and make suggestions,

talk about probabilities based on what is expected

or logical

and refer to obligations -

such as, everyone should wear a seat belt when driving –

though it's not as strong as must.

Well done. Two points each.

Now it's time to..

Hold up a sec!

What a champion!

What poise! What precision!

But here's a quick note from someone who's

walked the walk before.

Why not try it like this.

Great play everyone, amazing performance!

Two points each!

OK Sal.

Nice idea.

I'll bear that one in mind.

Let's move on to round two.

Should is a modal verb and so has no past form.

How, then, can we use should in the past?

Don't we use

should + have + a past participle verb?

Correct!

Well done, Bill. And for a bonus point,

what functional use does it have?

It's used to talk about

past actions that either were or weren't a good idea.

Correct!

He got the bonus point!

Well done Bill!

You're a star!

Hit it!

You shouldn't have done that!

Sal,

out of respect for a peer, I am going to let that one slide.

But that is your last warning.

Leslie?

Well done, Bill!

We can combine should with have and a past participle

to talk about actions that either weren't a good idea

or would have been, but didn't happen.

This is useful for criticising someone.

For example, you shouldn't have done that!

Or for talking about regrets. For example,

I should have listened to my mother more.

Well done, Bill.

You get the bonus point.

Hit it!

Oh f...

Well, that one's ruined now!

On to our last round.

The verb phrase had better is similar to should.

But there are some important differences.

Look at these sentences

and correct the ones which are wrong.

Both are followed by a bare infinitive.

Both can be used to give advice.

Both are the same degree of intensity.

Neither includes a sense of consequence.

C) is wrong.

Had better is more immediate and urgent than should.

Correct!

I think D is also incorrect.

Doesn't had better include a sense of worry or danger

of negative consequence if the advice is not followed?

Correct!

Tell them Leslie.

Leslie, my best buddy and pal!

My best buddy and pal.

Wow folks!

What a guy!

Should and had better have similar meanings.

Both are followed by a bare infinitive,

and both can be used to give advice.

However,

had better is a little more immediate and intense.

When we use had better, there is an, often unspoken,

sense of a negative consequence

if the advice is not followed.

This also makes had better useful

when delivering threats.

For example, Sal,

you had better stop poking that bear with that stick.

Isn't he great folks?

Let's hear it for your favourite voice in the sky…

it's Leslie!

Alright, that's the conjunction that broke the syntax.

Bill you win.

The prize is a...

a boat or something.

And Sal?

Maybe you should try having a catchphrase.

Something like…

waaah!

Nope!

That's a little too long-winded for me!

Release the unsatisfied audience.

And Leslie? Do the...

goodbye bit.

Sawadee ka, Leslie!

There, see you next time!

Nice idea.

I'll bear that one in mind. |tenere a mente|||| Lo tendré en cuenta. Bunu aklımda tutacağım. Я буду мати це на увазі. 我會記住這一點。

Let's move on to round two.

Should is a modal verb and so has no past form.

How, then, can we use should in the past? O halde, geçmişte nasıl kullanabiliriz?

Don't we use

should + have + a past participle verb?

Correct!

Well done, Bill. And for a bonus point, Aferin, Bill. Ve bonus puan için,

what functional use does it have? |fonctionnel|||| |기능적인|||| hangi işlevsel kullanıma sahip? яке функціональне призначення вона має? 它有什麼功能用途?

Well done Bill!

You're a star!

Hit it! ¡Dale| Vur!

You shouldn't have done that! ¡No deberías haber hecho eso! Bunu yapmamalıydın!

But that is your last warning. |||||avviso |||||advertencia Pero esa es tu última advertencia.

Leslie?

Well done, Bill!

We can combine should with have and a past participle should ile have ve geçmiş zaman ortacını birleştirebiliriz

to talk about actions that either weren't a good idea ||||que||||| говорити про дії, які або не були гарною ідеєю

or would have been, but didn't happen. або мав би бути, але цього не сталося.

This is useful for criticising someone. ||||批评| ||||critiquer| ||||誰かを批判| Bu, birini eleştirmek için kullanışlıdır. 這對於批評某人很有用。

For example, you shouldn't have done that! |||||した| ||tú|||| Örneğin, bunu yapmamalıydın!

You get the bonus point.

Hit it! 打它!

Oh f...

Well, that one's ruined now! |||台無しだ| bueno|||| Artık o da mahvoldu! 好吧,那個現在已經毀了!

On to our last round.

The verb phrase had better is similar to should.

But there are some important differences.

Look at these sentences

and correct the ones which are wrong.

Both are followed by a bare infinitive. |||||base|

Both can be used to give advice.

Both are the same degree of intensity. ||||||intensité ||||정도|| Her ikisi de aynı yoğunluk derecesindedir. Обидва мають однаковий ступінь інтенсивності. 兩者的強度相同。

Neither includes a sense of consequence. weder||||| |포함하다|||| İkisi de bir sonuç duygusu içermiyor. Жодна з них не включає в себе відчуття наслідків.

C) is wrong.

Had better is more immediate and urgent than should. verbo auxiliar|||||||| Daha iyi olsaydı, olmalıydıdan daha acil ve önemlidir. Had better - це більш негайне і термінове, ніж should.

Correct!

I think D is also incorrect.

Doesn't had better include a sense of worry or danger Endişe veya tehlike hissi içermese iyi olur Не варто включати почуття тривоги або небезпеки

of negative consequence if the advice is not followed? Tavsiyeye uyulmaması halinde olumsuz sonuçların ortaya çıkma olasılığı nedir? негативних наслідків, якщо не дотримуватися порад?

Correct!

Tell them Leslie.

Leslie, my best buddy and pal! |||레슬리, 내 절친이자 친구!|| Leslie|||amigo||amigo ¡Leslie, mi mejor amiga y compañera! Leslie, en iyi dostum ve arkadaşım!

My best buddy and pal. ||Freund||

Wow folks! Vay canına millet!

What a guy!

Should and had better have similar meanings.

Both are followed by a bare infinitive,

and both can be used to give advice.

However,

had better is a little more immediate and intense. daha iyisi biraz daha ani ve yoğundur.

When we use had better, there is an, often unspoken, |||||||||non-dit |||||||||암묵적인 |||||||||暗黙の |||||||||no dicho Cuando utilizamos had better, hay un, a menudo tácito, had betterを使うとき、しばしば発言されない

sense of a negative consequence 感覚|||| 否定的な結果の感覚があります

if the advice is not followed. アドバイスに従わなかった場合。

This also makes had better useful これも「had better」を有用にする。 Це також робить їх більш корисними

when delivering threats. |发出| |livrant| |脅迫する際|脅迫 ||amenazas 脅威を伝える時。 tehditleri iletirken. при передачі погроз.

For example, Sal, 例えば、サル、

Let's hear it for your favourite voice in the sky… 空の中のあなたのお気に入りの声に拍手を送りましょう… Давайте послухаємо ваш улюблений голос у небі...

Alright, that's the conjunction that broke the syntax. |||连词||||句法 |||||||syntaxe |||Konjunktion|||| |||접속사||||구문 구조 Pekala, sözdizimini bozan bağlaç buydu. Гаразд, це сполучник, який порушив синтаксис. 好吧,這就是破壞語法的連接詞。

Bill you win. Білл, ти виграв.

The prize is a... Приз - це...

a boat or something. човен чи щось таке.

And Sal?

Maybe you should try having a catchphrase. ||||||口号 ||||||phrase accrocheuse ||||||Slogan ||||||유행어를 가져봐. ||||||frase pegajosa Belki de bir slogan bulmayı denemelisin. Можливо, вам варто спробувати створити крилату фразу.

Nope! Ні!

That's a little too long-winded for me! |||||啰嗦|| eso|||||extenso|| Bu benim için biraz fazla uzun oldu! Для мене це надто довго! 這對我來說有點太囉嗦了!

Release the unsatisfied audience. ||不满的| ||le public insatisfait| ||unzufriedene| ||불만족한| Tatmin olmamış izleyicileri serbest bırakın. Відпустіть незадоволену аудиторію. 釋放那些不滿意的觀眾。
