64. 3 Ways To Use "To Be Supposed to"

16 min9 december 2020

THIS IS AN ANNA WITH 2Ns EPISODE BEFORE I REBRANDED TO CONFIDENT BUSINESS ENGLISH. I RECOMMEND STARTING WITH THE MOST RECENT CONFIDENT BUSINESS ENGLISH EPISODES.


This little modal verb phrase has been popping up a lot in my classes and teaching so I want to teach it to you. This is a common confusion with the verb Suppose (which is different) and it is VERY common mistake. Students say "It's supposed that" instead of "to be supposed to" in the correct form. 

I go through and give you 3 clear examples of how we use this structure in the real life to talk about expectation and requirement in the present and past tense.

I really encourage you to think about your own sentences with "to be supposed to" after listening to this episode and to start using them when you speak English.
