El verbo Can
Este verbo es modal y, como tal, no tiene forma de infinitivo,
simplemente decimos can, nunca diremos to can.
Significa poder y est conectado con la idea de posibilidad y habilidad.
Como cualquier otro verbo modal o auxiliar (como puede ser el
verbo to be), este verbo:
1.- No aade la s a la tercera persona del singular.
Eg.: He can l puede
She can Ella puede
2.- Las interrogativas y negativas se hacen sin el auxiliar do / does.
Eg.: I can not Yo no puedo
She can not Ella no puede
Can you speak English? Puedes hablar ingls?
PHRASES
GRAMMAR
3.- Va seguido de un infinitivo sin to.
Eg.: You can eat T puedes comer
They can read Ellos pueden leer
Afirmativa:
I can yo puedo
you can t puedes (Ud. puede, Uds. pueden,
vosotros podis)
he can l puede
she can ella puede
it can ello puede (cosa, animal)
we can nosotros podemos
they can ellos, ellas pueden
Negativa:
Para formar la negativa del verbo can, aadimos la partcula not
al verbo. Sin embargo, podemos encontrarlo escrito de diferente
modo (cant, cannot). Todas estas formas son iguales y nunca
varan.

you cannot t no puedes, Ud. no puede, Uds. no

Can it? puede ello (animal o cosa)?

En cuanto a significado (y como hemos mencionado anteriormente),
este verbo puede indicar posibilidad y habilidad.

We can go Nosotros podemos ir
Si can indica habilidad, se traduce como saber.
Eg.: I can drive Yo s conducir

Cuando respondemos es ms usual utilizar la forma corta, que
consiste en poner el sujeto ms el verbo can en negativa o
afirmativa, segn convenga en cada caso.
Eg.: Can you come?
Yes, I can. / No, I cannot.
