Semana 5: Can - Can't

We use 'can' to talk about 'possibility'. •Can you do that? •I can't manage to do that. •You can leave your car in that parking space. •You cannot smoke in here. Notice that there are two negative forms: 'can't' and 'cannot'. These mean exactly the same thing. When we are speaking, we usually say 'can't'. We use 'can' to talk about 'ability'. •I can speak French. •I can't drive.
