HAVE TO FOR OBJECTIVE OBLIGATION

We often use have to say that something is obligatory, for example:

Children have to go to school.

Structure of have to

Have to is often grouped with modal auxiliary verbs for convenience, but in fact it
is not a modal verb. It is not even an auxiliary verb. In the have to structure, "have"
is a main verb.

The basic structure for have to is:

 SUBJECT + AUXILIARY + HAVE + TO-INFINITIVE
VERB

Look at these examples in the Present Simple tense:

SUBJECT AUXILIARY VERB MAIN VERB HAVE TO-INFINITIVE

+ SHE HAS TO WORK.
- I DO NOT HAVE TO SEE THE DOCTOR.
? DO YOU HAVE TO GO TO SCHOOL?

USE OF HAVE TO

In general, have to expresses impersonal obligation. The subject of have to is

obliged or forced to act by a separate, external power (for example, the Law or
school rules). Have to is objective. Look at these examples:

 In France, you have to drive on the right.

 In England, most schoolchildren have to wear a uniform.
 John has to wear a tie at work.

In each of the above cases, the obligation is not the subject's opinion or idea. The
obligation comes from outside.

We can use have to in all tenses, and also with modal auxiliaries. We conjugate it
just like any other main verb. Here are some examples:
  SUBJECT AUXILIARY MAIN TO-INFINITIVE
