§ 12. Need.

Need expresses necessity. It is mostly used in negative and interrogative sentences.

You needn’t be in such a fright. Take my arm. (Shaw)

He надо так бояться. Возьмите меня под руку.

Note. —When need is used in the meaning of ‘to be in want of’ it is treated as a normal verb.

He needs a new pair of shoes.

Need has only one tense form —the Present. In the same way as dare, need is used as a normal and as an anomalous verb; the latter is much more common in colloquial English.

One need to be careful. (Zandvoort)

He did not need to be told twice. (Zandvoort)

Why need he bother us? (Kruisinga)

I am here. You needn’t be afraid. (Greene)

I need hardly say I would do anything in the world to ensure Gwendolen’s happiness. (Wilde)

Need is used' both with the Indefinite and with the Perfect Infinitive.

I suppose I needn’t have made that observation. (Pinero) Пожалуй, не к чему мне было делать такое замечание.

MOOD

In Modern^Eggli^h we distinguish three moods:

  1. The Indicative Mood.

  2. The ImgepiMygMmil

  3. The Subjunctive Mood.

Q) THE INDICATIVE MOOD

The Indicative Mood shows that the action or state expressed by the verb is presented as a fact.

The Indicative Mood is also used to express a real, condition,

  1. e. a condition the realization of which is considere'd* possible.

If it rains, I shall stay at home.

If Catherine disobeys us, we shall disinherit her. (Eliot)

THE IMPERATIVE MOOD

The Imperative Mood expresses a command or a request. In Modern JEnglish the Imperative Mood has only one form which 1?mn$aes with the infinitive without the particle to\ it is used in the second person (singular and plural).

Be quiet and hear what I tell you. (Eliot)

Please put the papers on the table by the bed. (Hemingway)

In forming the negative the auxiliary verb to'do is always used, even with the verb to be.

Hush! Don’t make a noise! (Eliot)

Don’t be angry... (Hemingway)

The auxiliary verb to do may also be used in affirmative sen­tences to make the request more £mf!ba?f6;

But now, do sing again to us. (Eliot)

lo make a request or an order more emphatic the subject Pa I >i iv.sed by the pronoun you is sometimes used. It is character- ill lc of colloquial speech.

lute. — A command addressed to the third person singular and plural is usually expressed with the help of the verb to let.

Let the child go home at once.

Пусть ребенок сейчас же идет домой.

Wit]i first person plural the verb to let is used to express an exhortation to a joint action.
