Modal verbs are placed right before the base form of the main verb in a sentence and help express possibility, ability, or necessity. Note that the main verbs used after the modal verbs do not take '-s', '-es', or '-ing' at the end of the verb.

Examples:

  • She can sing beautifully.
  • It might rain later today.
  • He should apologize for his bad behavior.
  • You must complete your work before the deadline.

The future perfect tense follows a simple structure. To form a sentence using the future perfect tense, we use will + have + past participle of the verb. Look at the following example to understand the rule of future perfect tense better:

  • He will have driven 10 miles by 2 PM.
  • Sharon will have slept for three hours by the time we reach the beach.
  • You will have baked the cupcake by dinner time.
