Expressing Willingness/Unwillingness USING MODAL VERB+ADVERBIALS
We use different modal verbs and adverbials to express degrees of willingness or unwillingness. Adverbials include: ever, hardly ever, seldom, occasionally, sometimes, often, usually, almost always.
Modal verb+adverbials
- I can hardly ever see her these days.
- Can you ever stop talking?
- He could occasionally help me with my work.
- Could you please be quiet? I’m trying to concentrate.
- I may sometimes go out with friends on weekends.
- May I ask you a question?
Using modal verb and adverbials to express willingness and unwillingness ‘will, would, won’t, wouldn’t, shall, shan’t’
- I will always be there for you.
- Would you please turn off the light?
- I won’t ever go back
Using modal verbs and adverbials to express willingness and unwillingness:
- I will always be there for you.
- Would you please turn off the light?
- I won’t ever go back.
- Using modal verb and adverbials to express willingness and unwillingness ‘will, would, won’t, wouldn’t, shall, shan’t’
Use shall and shan’t with the pronouns ‘I’ or ‘we’ to indicate (neutral) future time without any expression of determination or a strong willingness to do something.
- I shall be seeing you tomorrow.
- We shall be at school tomorrow.
- I shan’t be staying long at school tomorrow.
Use ‘will’ and ‘won’t’ with the pronouns ‘I’ and ‘we’ to show determination, intention, a promise, an assurance, insistence, strong willingness etc.
- Will be there tomorrow, whether you like it or not.
- We will win the match, we promise.
- I won’t be intimidated.
‘Would’ and ‘wouldn’t’ can be used to express willingness refusal:
- They would do anything for their parent.
- They wouldn’t heed my advice.
When you use ‘he’, ‘she’, and ‘they’ with ‘shall’ you are expressing a strong willingness or giving orders.
- He shall be giving back his property (i.e. you are willing to see that he gets back his property).
- You shall remain there until further notice.
- They shall do as they are told.
On the other hand, when he you and they are used with will the neutral future time is being expressed: that is, with no indication of determination, insistence, willingness, etc.
- Uche: I will drown and no one shall save me
- Fisherman: In that case, I assume that you intend to commit suicide and are determined not to be rescued.
- Uche: Help! I’m drowning.
- Fisherman: Now, I must rescue you at once.
B. Using adjectives and adverbials to express willingness or unwillingness

The Chairman,
Apapa Local Government Area,

Lagos State.
Dear Mr. Chairman,
THE POOR CONDITION OF ROADS IN OUR AREA
I am writing to urge you to consider tarring the road to my school. The current road is in poor condition and is a hazard for students and staff.
Poor road conditions can lead to accidents and injuries, and the cost of repairs can be significant. Tarring the road would improve safety and make it easier to maintain.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Your name

Elements of Poetry (use recommended poem).
There are many elements that combine to create a successful poem. In this section, we will discuss some of the more important elements that you should be aware of when reading or writing poetry.
Rhyme is perhaps the most important element of poetry. It is the repetition of similar sounds in successive words, usually at the end of lines. Rhyme gives a poem a musical quality, and it can also help to emphasize the meaning of the words.
Rhythm is the pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line of poetry. It is often compared to the beat of music, and it can create a feeling of movement or momentum in a poem.
Metaphor is a figure of speech that uses one thing to represent another. In poetry, metaphors can be used to create vivid images or to express ideas in a concise way.
Symbolism is the use of symbols to represent ideas or concepts. In poetry, symbols can be used to add depth and meaning to a poem.
Imagery is the use of vivid, descriptive language to create mental images. In poetry, imagery can be used to engage the reader’s senses and to create a more powerful emotional response.
Form is the overall structure of a poem. It includes the number of lines, the rhyme scheme, and the meter. The form of a poem can often be used to convey its meaning or to create a particular effect.
The above elements are just a few of the many that contribute to the making of a poem. As you read and write poetry, be on the lookout for these elements and consider how they are being used
