ought1
¦ modal verb (3rd singular present and past ought)
1. used to indicate duty or correctness.
used to indicate a desirable or expected state.
used to give or ask advice.
2. used to indicate something that is probable.
Origin
OE ahte, past tense of agan 'owe' (see owe).
Usage
Ought is an example of a modal verb, and does not behave like ordinary verbs. In particular, the negative is formed with the word not alone and not also with auxiliary verbs such as do or have. The standard construction for the negative is he ought not to have gone: the forms he didn't ought to have gone and he hadn't ought to have gone are not acceptable in standard modern English.
