Hello,
I have another question related to the topic today:
Is there an expresion in arabic equivalent to the english: "It is necesary to ...", here you are not saying who is responsible for the action or who must or do it. How do you handle that in arabic?
Thanks. great lesson.

I think those two phrases mean the same thing. Ehab will of course know better about the finer points of the meaning.
For question 2 I think you can say
من الضروري الحضور إلي الحصة
that just means going to class is necessary. Perhaps it can be expressed in a passive voice too. -
I didn't realise at first that you guys were playing a pun with the 'must, may, have to' thing. Good one :)

Really appreciated this explanation of degrees of obligation/inclination. Thanks guys!

It is one of the the best pods I´ve heard. I was waiting for it and I already listened to it a couple of times.
I have one question, what is the difference, if any, between these two approaches?
