    Three men came to New York for a holiday. They came to a very large hotel and took a room there. Their room was on the forty-fifth floor. In the evening friends went to the theatre and came back to the hotel very late. “I’m very sorry,” said the clerk of the hotel, “but the lifts do not work tonight. If you don’t want to walk up to your room, we shall make beds for you in the hall.” “No, no,” said one of the friends, “no,thank you. We don’t want to sleep in the hall.We shall walk up to our room.” Then he turned to his friends and said: “It’s not easy to walk up to the forty-fifth floor, but we shall make it easier. On the way to the room I shall tell you some jokes; then you, Andy, will sing us some songs; then you, Peter, will tell us some interesting stories.

Grammar have to/don’t have to

have to is used to express strong obligation, but when we use have to there is usually a sense of external obligation. Some external circumstance makes the obligation necessary.

Examples:

  • I have to send an urgent email.
  • I have to take this book back to the library.
  • REMEMBER: “Do not have to” vs. “Must not”
    “Do not have to” suggests that someone is not required to do something. “Must not” suggests that you are prohibited from doing something.

    Examples:

    • You must not eat that. It is forbidden, it is not allowed.
    • You don’t have to eat that. You can if you want to, but it is not necessary.
