Yes, "shall" is still used in spoken English, but it's less common in casual conversation, especially in American English. "Shall" is more frequently heard in British English or in formal contexts. It is often used:

  1. For making offers or suggestions:

    • "Shall we go for a walk?"
    • "Shall I help you with that?"
  2. For formal promises or commitments:

    • "The company shall provide full support during the transition."
  3. In legal or contractual language:

    • "The tenant shall pay rent on the first of each month."
