Modals
Modal perfects for past speculation and regret
はじめに
法助動詞の完了形(法助動詞 + have + 過去分詞)は、過去について推測するための洗練された構造です。「must have」「might have」「can't have」「should have」「could have」——それぞれ異なる確信度や判断の種類を表します。
これらの構造は、過去の可能性を論じたり、後悔を表現したり、「もしかしたら」を分析するのに不可欠。英語の会話や文章で常に使われています。
日本語の「〜したに違いない」「〜したかもしれない」「〜すべきだった」に近いですが、英語はこの表現がもっと体系化されています。法助動詞の完了形をマスターすれば、過去の出来事について繊細な考えを正確に表現できるようになりますよ。
