You should go / we shouldn't

Grammar notes

Should for Advice

Use should and shouldn't to give advice or say what is a good idea. It is weaker than a rule and more like guidance. The verb after should stays in the base form.

• Example: You should rest.
• Example: We shouldn't spend so much.

Quick Rule

• should + base verb for advice
• shouldn't + base verb for negative advice

It is the grammar of a helpful suggestion, not a hard order.
