(= it is possible for me to speak Spanish = I have the ability to speak Spanish)He can swim well.We can see our neighbour in the garden.They can play the guitar.<h3>Negative</h3>To form the negative we add "not" after can to form one word: cannot.We can also contract the negative to form can't. (can't = cannot)I cannot play the piano. We can't go to the cinema tonight.She cannot speak French very well. He can't drive a car.<h3>Questions</h3>To from the question we change the position of the subject and the auxiliary verb.The main verb is still in the infinitive without to.Where can I buy an ice-cream?Can I go to the party, please?Can you speak Japanese?What can we do on Saturday?Remember that you can use short answers:Can I sit here please? Yes, you can.Can you speak Chinese? No, I can't.<h3>Impersonal Can</h3>Sometimes You can and Can you…? are impersonal and refer to people in general.You can see many stars at night from here. (= people in general can see many stars)It doesn't necessarily refer to you but people in general.You can't run naked in the middle of the street.
