(be) supposed to _____

"(be) supposed to" expresses obligation. Someone expects you to do something. It's an unusual form of the passive voice, but it's very important to learn.

@shafishinwari1 -- Yes, you use (be) supposed to talk about the future. For example: She's supposed to meet me later today. / It's supposed to rain tomorrow.  Okay, I'll add "considered" to my list. Good idea.

[learnamericanenglish]

Yes, it's okay, but "ain't" is considered to be poor English. Many Americans use it.
