The interrogative and negative forms of the modal verb to have
to are built up by means of the auxiliary verb to do.1

don't have to explain."

§ 93. The verb to have to serves to express obligation or neces-
sity imposed by circumstances. It is rendered in Russian as прихо-
дится, вынужден.
In this meaning it is found in all kinds of sentences — af-
firmative, interrogative and negative — and is combined only
with the simple infinitive.
e.g. He had to do it.
