Can Vs. Could |මෙච්චර වෙනස් කියලා දැනගෙන හිටියාද? | Modal Verbs-Lesson 1

In today's video, we dive deep into the world of modal verbs by exploring the distinctions between "can" and "could." Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your English skills, this video is packed with valuable insights.
"Can" and "could" are both modal verbs in English, and they are used to express various shades of possibility, ability, permission, or requests. However, they are used in slightly different ways and contexts.

Understanding the Basics: We start by breaking down the fundamental differences between "can" and "could." Learn when to use each one, and why context matters.
Present and Past Abilities: Discover how "can" and "could" are used to describe present and past abilities. We provide clear examples to illustrate these concepts.
Politeness and Requests: Explore how "could" is used to make requests more polite. I'll show you common phrases and scenarios where "could" is the preferred choice.
In most cases "Could " is used to make requests, suggestions , offers, permissions more polite and is most commonly used in formal contexts in English while "Can " is fine to use in informal and casual conversations to mean the same.
Special speaking patterns-
In this video I have also included how we can use "Could" to talk about past possibilities and imaginary/hypothetical situations with a lot of examples.
