Тест на знание модальных глаголов (Can / could / be able to)

Еще одним модальным глаголом является глагол can (мочь) – один из немногих модальных глаголов, имеющих форму прошедшего времени could. Этот модальный глагол выражает умственную и физическую способность человека. Подобно всем модальным глаголам глагол Can не видоизменяется и применяется ко всем лицам без исключения.

В сочетании со смысловым глаголом образует составное глагольное сказуемое. Глагол Can не принимает форму ни одного времени, и используется с инфинитивом глагола без частицы to. У данного модального глагола есть эквивалент – выражение be able to, которое мы можем использовать в настоящем, прошедшем и будущем временах для выражения умственных и физических способностей.
