Offering: Should I help you? Asking for / Giving advice: What should I do? I think you should call her. Talking about obligation or duties: He should see his mother more often. Talking about failed obligation in the past: He should have told me. Possibility: If you should see him, tell him I’ve left. Probability: He should be here soon. Should is also used after verbs such as command, order, insist and after some adjectives such as important, vital: He insisted that the contract should be signed immediately. It’s important that they should study hard for the exam. Should se nejčastěji se užívá, když vyjadřujeme pocit závazné povinnosti. V koutku kavárny sedí muž se ženou, muž je "spravedlivě" rozhořčený: Woman: …state about things. For Heaven’s sake! Man: Where are they? They should have been here ages ago. Woman: Oh, Pete. Calm down! Look. Should I go and get them? Man: No, no. You’re right. I shouldn’t worry so much. We’ve still got plenty of time. Anyway, fancy another coffee? Přátelé mají zpoždění. Pete se rozčiluje, že už tam dávno měli být. A užívá přitom minulý čas: should have been – mělo se v minulosti stát, a nestalo. Žena užívá should v nabídce: Mám/měla bych pro ně zajít? To Pete odmítá a radí sám sobě, aby se tolik nevzrušoval: I shouldn’t worry so much! Užívá zápor - shouldn’t.
