Modal verbs are auxiliary verbs that convey necessity, possibility, permission, or ability. They include "might," "may," "can," "could," "must," "should," and "have to."

Basics. Modal verbs for expressing preferences, requests, and imperatives in speech.
Modals and imperatives can express preferences, requests, and suggestions. "Would you like...?" can replace "Do you want?" or invite someone. "I'd like..." is a polite way to say "I want." "I'd rather..." expresses preferences. Positive imperatives give orders, make polite requests, or offer encouragement. Negative imperatives forbid actions or emphasize points. "Let's..." is used for asking people to do things or suggesting not to do something.

Conditional Subjunctive
Subjunctive mood is represented by three main forms in contemporary English: present subjunctive, past subjunctive, past perfect subjunctive. Other forms such as present continuous subjunctive and past continuous subjunctive are used very rarely.
These subordinate clauses may be divided into 4 types according to the realness of the condition and the time.
Apart from the aforementioned, advanced students are particularly interested in the accurate usage of such verbs as should, would, could, might, wish after if and in the case when it is omitted in the mixed type conditionals.
All this is simple and clear for you, and you would easily prove it passing a test on the subject, wouldn't you?
Special Constructions
In English there are some verb constructions having special indirect meaning, such as used to, would, get used to, get doing, be to do, happen to do, be going to do something, be about to do something etc.
For example “I would go swimming to the swimming pool in my childhood” – means that in the past I went to swim periodically but now I don’t go swimming anymore...
These constructions help to add different shades to the main meaning of a sentence without wordy explanations. Now, how about getting answering the questions?
