概要 | This paper investigates how ought to is used in some movies. The movie dialogues that have been used in this study are taken from the English movie caption database, which contains 801 million words from 978 English films. They help illustrate the characteristic of the semi-modal shown in the speaker’s expression. Based on the discussion, this paper suggests that when teaching ought to the trait of the modal should be introduced in a pre-presentation stage and then should be engaged in output practice, thus exposing learners to input and output activities. |
