i supposed to can mean generally assuming youâre going to do it, for example, âmy grandma invited me over for dinner tonightâ. she is assuming your going to go to the dinner. having to do something is more like a demand, for example, âmy teacher said i have to get this packet of work done otherwise i wonât passâ. i hope this helped :)

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- English (US)
âI am supposed to do homework tonightâ means that the person is expected to do the homework
âI have to do homework tonightâ means that the person has an obligation to do the homework tonight.
âHave toâ tends to mean that the person feels that they should do something.
âSupposed toâ tends to mean that the person knows they should do something because it is expected of them to do something.
