Should have

We use should have + past participle to talk about things we regret.

Example: "I got really wet walking home last night, I should have taken an umbrella." The speaker did not take an umbrella when she went out last night so she got wet. She regrets that she did not take her umbrella.

Example of Should have

I should have called you sooner.

Was supposed to

In English we use was / were supposed to to talk about things we agreed to do, or other people expected us to do, but we didn't do.

Grammar: Was / were supposed to + infinitive

Example: I was supposed to book the restaurant for tonight, but I forgot. ( I agreed to do it, but I forgot)

EXAMPLE OF WAS SUPPOSED TO

David was supposed to take the boys to football training tonight, but he had to work late. ( David was expected to take them, but he couldn't)

HAD TO

It is used when any necessity is expressed

Tense is in past

The actions that have been completed in the past

It is used with all the subjects but in the past tense

EXAMPLE OF HAD TO

I have to wake up at 5 A.M. in the morning The structure to form a sentence with the modal verb is – Subject + Modal Verb + Have to.

DIDN' T HAVE TO AND EXAMPLE

When any obligation or compulsion is made, “have to” is used as an expression while any necessity is made “had to” is used. “Have to’ is used for the present and future tense, while “Had to” is used for the past tense.

I did not have to wake up early at 6 A.M.

Need to

Use "need to" to express that something is important for you to do. This form is often used for something that is important one time, rather than referring to a responsibility or duty.

Example of Need to

• She needs to go to Seattle next week.

• Do you need to get up early tomorrow?

¡Thanks!
