Do you ever ask yourself:
“Do I have to study today?”
“Should I go to class early?”
“Must I do all this homework?”
If so, you’re already thinking in English! In this blog, we’ll explore must, have to, and should—three powerful little helpers that make it easier to talk about rules, duties, and advice. Let’s see how to use these expressions with a detailed guide from our English language institute in Dubai.
“Must” shows a strong obligation, either from the speaker or a rule/law. It often sounds urgent or very important.
Examples:
Use “Must” When:
Common Mistakes:
❌ You must to go home. ✅ You must go home.
“Have to” is also about obligation—but the need comes from outside. A rule, schedule, or someone else tells you what to do.
Examples:
Grammar tip: I/you/we/they have to He/she/it has to
“Should” gives advice, recommendations, or opinions. It’s soft and helpful—not strict.
Examples:
Use “Should” For:
❌ She must to do it. ✅ She must do it.
❌ I should to study more. ✅ I should study more.
❌ He don’t have to go. ✅ He doesn’t have to go.
