Verb
Hello
Please help
1. Is to, are to (be+ to), has to etc(auxiliary +to-modelverbs)
Are these model verbs
2. Voice/tense
My concern is if I replace is to/are to/have to with following model verbs - should/ will etc would the rules to define tense and voice structure remain same
For eg.
- this should be executed (future simple in passive voice ) (model verb+be+ objected acted upon)
Similarly
- task 'is yet to' (model verb) be executed -
- this has to(model verb) be taken on priority
Are these (present simple in passive voice )
Or
- he should be doing this
- he will be doing this(future progressive active)
Similarly
- he 'is supposed to' be doing this
This should also be in (present progressive active)
