Unit 10. Modal verbs of deduction or speculation

Listen when to use modal verbs of deduction. The podcast lasts about 8m. Enjoy!

This is the story to practice modals for deductions in the past: Tom and Frank are friends, but they live in different cities. Tom lives in Seattle while Frank lives in New York.

Frank might've stayed...
if Tom had called.
They can't have been glad.
