 108  The defective form is more common for one particular occasion. Need I show you my pass now? The defective form is mainly restricted to negative and interrogative sentences whereas the regular verb can be used in all types of sentences and is therefore more common. Need expresses necessity. It is mainly used in questions and negative statements, where it is a replacement for must or for haw (have got to). Do you need to work so hard (do you have to work johard? Have you got in . ). It corresponds to the Russian нужно. You needn't do it now. (Сейчас не нужно этого делать.) Need bhc come tomorrow? (Ей нужно завтра приходить?) The negation is not always combined with the verb, but expressed by other parts of the sentence. 1 don’t think we need mention him at all. I reed hardly say that you are to blame. In questions need is used when there is a strong element ot doubt or when the speaker expects a negative answer. Need she go there? (hoping for a negative answer) I wonder if 1 need go there, (statement of doubt) 108 |
