الكاتب :مايا_بلسم
hii all of you hope that you are ok
today we are going to deal with ability and possibility in English language
''ability is something that can't be done easily and by everybody it is expressed by the form ''able to
the grammatical construction is
S+ V TO BE + able to + v stem + rest of sentence
for instance: i'am able to speak three languages
he is able to claim mountains
possibility is something that can be done easily and by everybody
it is expressed by the form can /could
the grammatical construction is :
S+ CAN OR COULD + V STEM + REST OF SENTECE
for instance :
i can go to school by bus
he could visit his grand parents last summer
as a conclusion we can say
able to refers to ability
can or could refers to possibility
good luck for all of you
