  • Hey friends, I'm Rachna and I'm back with a new lesson. Well today I was a little confused

  • what lesson do I take up, and then one of my friends said, " You are supposed to reach

  • them how to use 'suppose to'." Okay, so well, another modal verb here for you-supposed to.

  • Now, being a modal verb, it has various uses and it is used in different context, okay.

  • So, first remember it is always 'supposed to', okay. So don't minus the 'd', it's always

  • with a 'd' -supposed to, okay. Also remember, when you use supposed to, you have to use

  • the verb in the 'be' form, the be form verb before supposed to, okay. So it could be,

  • he is supposed to, I am supposed to, you are supposed to. In the past, you were supposed

  • to, he was supposed to, okay. So that's what I mean, use the be form before 'supposed to',

  • okay. So, the new James Bond movie is supposed to be excellent. Now see the be form, alright,

  • is supposed to be excellent. So you always have a verb in the first form, supposed to

  • be, supposed to go. So you have supposed to be excellent. Now when I tell you this that

  • the new movie is supposed to be excellent, that means it is believed okay, it is believed

  • that the new movie is supposed to be excellent or the new movie is excellent, it is believed,

  • okay, or it is said, alright. Well, uh, it is believed that Starbucks coffee is really

  • nice.So, Starbucks coffee is supposed to be really nice. Okay well, I love Starbucks,

  • okay. So Starbucks coffee is supposed to be nice. That means it is said to be nice. It

  • is believed to be nice. So, this is one of the ways of using supposed to when you want

  • to say it is believed or it is said, okay. So, let's take look at another use of supposed

  • to. I am supposed to get to work at eight. Well, here it means something that is expected

  • from you okay, or when you tell someone your supposed to, your expecting something from

  • the other person. It's more like 'should' also. Like I should get to work by eight,

  • so I'm supposed to, expected from you, okay. If I don't, trust me I'm in big trouble. So,

  • I'm supposed to get to work by eight. Remember, to use the be form, alright. So, I'm supposed

  • to, you have the 'd' here, I'm supposed to get to work by eight. Certain rules and regulations,

  • expected from me, I'm supposed to. Alright, so sometimes when you tell your teacher, " I

  • haven't done my homework." She'll look at you and say, "You are supposed to do your

  • homework every single day." It is expected from you that you should do your homework

  • every single day. So when something is expected, you are supposed to do it. Well, it may sound

  • a little like an obligation also where you have no choice, it could be a duty and you're

  • just supposed to do it, okay. So I'm gonna tell you now, "You are supposed to watch all

  • our videos, all our lessons okay and your are supposed to subscribe and you're supposed

  • to tell your friends to subscribe to our channel, okay." So don't forget, you're supposed to

  • watch all lessons and take the test, too. Okay, so in this context it means something

  • that is expected to be done, okay. If I say, "You were supposed to phone me last night

  • and you didn't." That means something was to happen but actually did not happen. So

  • see here I'm using it in the past-you were, it's the past form of 'be'. You were supposed

  • to phone me but you didn't last night, okay. So, the fact that I'm saying you were supposed

  • to phone me is because it actually did not happen. I didn't receive a call from you last

  • night, alright. Okay, so well, my friend John was supposed to marry Maria last week, but

  • well, some issues and they didn't marry. So something that was to happen or was supposed

  • to happen but it actually didn't happen. That is why I tell you, my friend John was supposed

  • to marry Maria last week. It means he was to marry, but actually it didn't happen, probably

  • the wedding was called off, okay. And let's take one more look at supposed to. I am not

  • supposed to tell you the details discussed in the meeting. So if you're gonna come around

  • being super curious asking me what happened. Now, I'm putting it in the negative, I am

  • not supposed to. So, when you use not supposed to, that means you use supposed to in the

  • negative-not supposed to, it means you are not allowed to do something, you are prohibited

  • from doing something. So I tell you, listen, no offends okay, I'm really sorry. I'm not

  • supposed to tell you the details discussed in the meeting, sorry, okay. So that means

  • I'm banned, I'm restricted, I'm prohibited from sharing certain things with you. So,

  • you can say it's not allowed to, okay or you're prohibited from doing something. So suppose

  • you see someone smoking in a public place, well you may just go and happen hello, you

  • are not supposed to smoke in here ya, because you are banned, you're not allowed to, you're

  • prohibited from smoking here, so you're not supposed to smoke in here. okay friends, so

  • quick recap, remember supposed to is a modal verb. Always use the be form before supposed

  • to, it could be is am are, was were in the past, okay. It is always supposed to, do not

  • write suppose to, okay, fine. So remember when you want to say something is believed

  • this way or it is said this way, you use supposed to. When something is expected from you, like

  • reaching work on time or doing your homework or well watching all our lessons, you are

  • supposed to watch all our lessons. You were supposed to for something that was to happen

  • but actually did not happen in real. So you were supposed to do something but you didn't

  • and well in the negative when you use not supposed to, that means you're not allowed

  • to or you are prohibited from doing something, okay friends. Well, this brings me to the

  • end of another lesson. I hope you enjoyed watching it. Well do remember, you are supposed

  • to take a test, okay. I'll be back soon with a new lesson. Till then take care and bye.

Hey friends, I'm Rachna and I'm back with a new lesson. Well today I was a little confused
