(5). MODAL Verb and Deduction (Probability)

Deduction and Probability  Deduction and Probability are about making prediction about event or situation. The importance is knowing how sure the prediction will happen or probably happen.   If we are really sure about our prediction (80-100%), we use must or will ( cannot or will not for negative sentence) but if we are not really sure of our prediction or doubtful , we use may, might or could.  There are two kinds of deduction and probability such as present and past form. STRONGLY SURE Present form is used for present situation by using this pattern ( must or will   + V1).                Owen always thinks about Oliv.  Owen must love Oliv. Past form  is used for past situation by using this pattern  (Must Have + V3).                                Owen always thought about Oliv.  Owen must have loved Oliv.
