Muy pobre explicacion, deberias hacer mas ejemplos y ejercicios para su entendimiento. Saludos

[@oxfordenglishnow]

I am sorry you didn't like it. 🥲

[@RimaMiro-j1v]

I appreciate your efforts however should have +pp it expresses an advice,criticize, regret and apologize

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi, yes it does: You should have worked harder. I should have bought a lottery ticket. I should have known better. All examples of this usage.

[@menioq.8740]

I know "shouldn't have" is correct? But is "should've not" correct as well? What do you think?

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi, no should've not is not correct. Sorry.

[@diliprajt3288]

When the subject is He what it should be? He shouldn't have or shouldn't has.

[@oxfordenglishnow]

He shouldn't have

Ex : I didn't go to college.now I'm depressed about my job. What's the appropriate modal I should use ?

[@oxfordenglishnow]

You could say, I should have gone to college, now I am depressed about my job. You should have gone, but you didn't. I hope that helps!

[@Наталия-и3м]

I want to say thank you for your reply to my question about the prepositions in the word combination "in the corner" and "at the corner". I have never been sure which to use when I talk about the street. Sometimes l hear people say " on the corner of the street" What is correct? You should come up with new lessons more often. I can hardly wait for the next class. Take care. Have a nice weekend.

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi Natalie, yes, « on the corner of the street » is correct too because we say on the « High Street. ». I agree, I should come up with new lessons more often and I will endeavour to do so! Thanks and have a great weekend too!

Hi teacher .. how we can prepare answer for the question (what have you done when you were younger?)

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi AHMED, wow, that is a big question! I suppose it depends on what you have done. You could tell some anecdotes about your childhood and use the narrative tenses. I have a lesson on that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHavqat_eJWZqtk

What tense is this in? Past perfect?

[@oxfordenglishnow]

The tense associated with "should have" is called the "past modal" or "past perfect modal."

[@aronbereket5241]

Thank you teacher but please i want to ask you for this what is differerent meaning for exaple i should,t have said that. And if only i had not said that? I want to know meaning of this sentence i am looking forwards to you giving me answer .

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi Aron, I should have said that means you regret having not said something ( you didn't say it) . Whereas, if only I had not said that means you really wish you had not said something ( but you did say it). Hope that helps!

[@valeriewijeyesekera1439]

Dear Teacher could you please tell me, in a future simple passive compound sentence, should I convert both verbs (in the main as well as subordinate clause) to - will be + past participle.

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Can you give me an example, please?

[@surajskumar233]

Could you do a video about the difference between should have, could have, would have ,might have. It would be more helpful. Thanks in advance.

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi Suraj, great suggestion. I’ll put it on my list of upcoming video ideas!

[@veereshchary1392]

This is brilliant video which i have heard so far thank you mam, but i have question about when do we use should have or should have been.please clarify it.

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi Veeresh, well you should now know how to use should have after watching the lesson. Should have been is also a past modal. We use 'should have been' with nouns, for example: 'My father was a teacher, but he didn't like his job. He should have been a doctor.' 'Should have been' is also used with adjectives, for example: 'My father was sad when his fourth child was born. I don't understand it: he should have been happy' And we also use 'should have been' with passive verb forms: 'Nobody told me that the lesson had been cancelled. I should have been told by email.' If the verb is active, use should have without been, like this: 'Nobody told me that the lesson had been cancelled. The college should have told me by email.' Hope this helps! 🙏

Hello . Is there any differences between (should have p.p) and ( didn't have to ) ? Thanks .

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi hesam, should have done something = means that it was the right thing to do, but is different from what really happened. Whereas, didn't have to means that it was not necessary to do something. Hope that helps! 🙏

Hi Moonlight, I hope that is a good thing?

[@sabanakb2176]

Hi ma'am Hope you are doing well I do have a doubt regarding the usage of modal verbs . used after "that" and adjectives or nouns that show an opinion or feeling: "It's so unfair that she should have died so young" PS: Taken from Cambridge dictionary What does this mean ma'am. Did she come back to life after a critical illness or the speaker is unaware of her condition now . I couldn't make out what they are trying to convey. Please do clear my doubt ma'am "I am amazed that he should have done something so stupid." "It's strange that he should have confided in her" Could you plz explain me did he done something stupid and confided in her or the speaker is assuming that. Thanking you

[@oxfordenglishnow]

Hi sabana, "It's so unfair that she should have died so young" means that she is dead. I am amazed that he should have done something so stupid." Yes, he has done something stupid. "It's strange that he should have confided in her" Yes, she has confided in her. Should here is used to express surprise or regret about something that happened. I hope that helps!
