This is an example of modal verb-"could". The whole sentence of this example is "Could you also pick my apples in the autumn?". I pick this example from the story book" The Giraffe and th Pelly and Me". It was written by Roald Dahl and published by PUFFIN. The reason why this sentence use "could" is because the Duke is asking the little boy to pick the apples for him.Sunday, November 11, 2007
