The modals on the right are past tense modals:
can / could
shall / should
will / would
may / might
must - not paired
I understand the past tense modals can be used as present tense in some situations.
Do you agree that perfect modals express a past tense?
So what happens when we use a past tense modal and the perfect tense?
can / could
shall / should
will / would
may / might
must - not paired
