So that - lest. (similarities and differencies)? What can go after so that? I have run into the following

1) modal verb 2) will (would) 3) main verb

++

1) I am calling him so that he should (could) meet her

2) I am calling him so that he will meet her

3) I am calling him so that he woudl meet her

4) I am calling him so that he meets her


Does each of these sentences make sense or is there a wrong sentence?

__

What can go after LEST?


1) Modal verb 2) would 3) infinitive

1) I am calling him lest he shoud meet her.

2) I am calling him lest he would meet her.

3) I am calling him lest he meet her,

Are all these correct?

Is it ok to use will after lest - lest he will meet her?


Thanks

English is not my first langauge - so, I might give your a wrong answer. To err is human.
