Q

I need …

A

Мне нужен / нужна / нужно / нужны

Note that this form literally translates as ‘ … is necessary to me’. The form of ‘нужен’ is therefore determined not by the subject, but the object.

E.g. ‘She needs air’ is ей нужен воздух because ‘воздух’ is masculine (not ей нужна воздух)

Q

I must …

A

Я должен / должна / должно / должны + infinitive

Or мне надо + infinitive. Надо does not decline

Note that должен expresses a much stronger requirement or demand than надо.

The choice changes depending on the gender and number of the subject (unlike ‘нужен’!). E.g.

Я должен работать
Таня должна работать
Мы должны работать

Note that должен has another connotation of owing something (based on должник), eg я должен денгы банку, я вам должен денгы, я никому ничего не должен

Q

Using ‘ли’

A

A helpful way to frame questions in a dialogue. Often used by moving the verb to the start of the sentence and adding ‘ли’: не кажется ли вам это опасным (doesn’t that seem dangerous to you?)

Не лучше ли закрыть границы? (Wouldn’t it be better to close the borders?)

Uses of чтобы

Чтобы + past tense: used where the subject of each verb is different (я позвонил, чтобы ты рассказал мне новости)

Чтобы + past tense when expressing desirability: much like the previous example, if the subject of the two verbs is different чтобы is used (я хочу, чтобы ты работал)

Чтобы + past tense when expressing impersonal expressions of desirability: eg
