The perfect modals (should have, could have, would have) are ideal when you think about the past and wish you had made a different decision. Or when you regret an outcome. Or wonder how life might be different now if you had made a different choice.
It’s natural for us to reflect on the past and experience a mix of emotions/thoughts about the past.
When we want to express those feelings and thoughts, perfect modals are the ideal way to do so.
Perfect modals - such as would have, could have, should have - help us travel back in time.
While the simple past is used to talk about what happened in the past, perfect modals go further and allow us to express those thoughts/feelings about the past.
In this Confident English English grammar lesson today, you’ll learn how to use the perfect modals - should have, could have, would have - with structural accuracy.

@mikokr3867 Год назад

AnneMarie, I found myself wishing to relearn starting afresh. I should have known that every one, including me is already perfect. I could have visited my son more often, but I chose not to for his independence. I would have climbed the mountain, but it was raining pretty hard.

@Lana.S. Год назад

He Annemarie, Thanks for this brilliant and easy explansion of Perfect Modals. I've watched some videos about them, but only after your video, I definitely understand in which cases to use them in real life. Thanks a lot. You became for me like a role model, I like your manner of speaking and try to copy it. I noticed when I use your phrases people give compliments me. Ok, my examples: 1. I'm really sorry. I know, I should've done it half a year ago, but I burned out at that period of time and just didn't have energy and time for this task. I promise. I'll deal with it in the nearest time. 2. I think, she could've been confused with timetable, because she is a newcomer in the city. It is a reason why she is not here yet. I guess, we need to phone her. 3. I would have had the same opportinities as my kids have at present time.

Thanks slot. Please could we say:if I had fixed my car,it shouldn't have been stopped me in the street

@Speakconfidentenglish 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the question. Can you tell me a little more about what you mean by "shouldn't have stopped me..." Do you mean the car stopped? One possibility is: If I had fixed my car, it wouldn't have stopped (unexpectedly) in the street.

@nirajthakor9748 7 месяцев назад

@@SpeakconfidentenglishI think the questioner wants to ask that car caused for him to stop in the street so sarcastically saying if i had fixed my car it wouldn't have got me into the situation like in the middle of the street and something

@Anna7English 24 дня назад

What is the difference between these sentences? 1. He couldn't drive here alone. 2. He couldn't have driven here alone.

@Speakconfidentenglish 21 день назад

Thanks for the question. The first sentence using the simple past to indicate that it was not possible for him to drive along. This could be due to lack of ability or illness, for example. The second uses the modal in the past perfect form indicating an assumption or a belief about something in the past. In thinking about a past situation, the speaker doesn't think the person drove alone. I hope this helps.
