Hi

Can anyone tell me what is the form of ther following sentence?

'You should go the doctor'

Can this be described as a construction with should 1?

Many thanks

Sorry Milanya, that was a typing error on my part.

I meant to say "you Should go to the doctor" (BTW should + go are meant to be underlined but i don't know how to do that here)

I am struggling to give an explanation of 'the form'

I have written 'Modal auxiliary verb 'should' + infinite of main verb 'to go' (without 'to')

But can i say that this sentence is a construction with should 1? ( i read this in a text book, but it doesn't sound correct to me)

Kind regards

Ian
