@englishforimpact's Quiz No. 60: Shouldn't VS Don't Have to
A mistake that 3 (!) students of mine have made this week: saying they "shouldn't" do something, while there was no negative advice, in fact.
Wow, let me simplify 🤓
🔠 When you say: "You shouldn't have all of the skills to get the job"
You actually say: It's a bad idea to have all of the skills
But you mean: It's great to have all of the skills, but not necessary
🔠 So you need to say instead: "You don't have to have all of the skills to get the job (only some)"
Now, you're ready for the quizzzzz 👇
