Should for expectation
When ' should' is used to express expecation, can I translate the sentence as follows?
She should be in Seoul by now.--> she is supposed to be in Seoul now.
She should hve arrived in Seoul last week--> She was supposed to be in Seoul last week.
She should be in Seoul by next week-> She will be supposed to be in Seoul by next week.
She should be in Seoul by now.--> she is supposed to be in Seoul now.
She should hve arrived in Seoul last week--> She was supposed to be in Seoul last week.
She should be in Seoul by next week-> She will be supposed to be in Seoul by next week.
Top answer
only the last translation sounds incorrect to me. perhaps "she's expected to be in seoul by next week" or "she will be in seoul sometime next week"
