說明
can 表示能力(會)、可能或許可(可以):I can swim.(我會游泳。)Can I use your phone?(我可以用你的手機嗎?)can 後面一律接原形,所有主詞都一樣,不加 -s。
can expresses ability or permission: I can swim, Can I use your phone? It's followed by the base form and never takes -s.
注意事項
- 過去式是 could:I could read when I was four.The past is could: I could read when I was four.
- Could you …? 比 Can you …? 更客氣。Could you …? is politer than Can you …?
常見錯誤
