Could you or can you?
1 Answer. If taken literally,
“Can you” is equivalent to asking the person
if they’re capable of doing something. “Could you”, on the other hand, implies that the action can be completed under some circumstances by the person. The usage of can you is idiomatic, and hence, is more popular used phrase of the two.
Should I use can or could?
The modal verbs can and
could
represent the ability of a person or thing in doing something. However, there is a difference in their usage, as ‘can’ is used in present situation, whereas we can use ‘could’ for talking about a past ability.
When I use can or could?
Can, like could and would, is used to ask a polite question, but
can is only used to ask permission to do or say something
(“Can I borrow your car?” “Can I get you something to drink?”). Could is the past tense of can, but it also has uses apart from that–and that is where the confusion lies.
Is anyone plural or singular?
Indefinite pronouns
Does anyone use or uses?
Yes, he uses a dictionary
. So basically, if you include do/does, go with the singular form of “use”.
Does anyone know correct?
‘Anybody’ is a third person singular form and takes -s in the present simple tense. That’s why the question form requires -s and ‘Does anybody’
is correct
.
Is could you please rude?
-> They both are impolite. They both sound like a command/order. The first one is less rude than the second one. Could you please give us some context?
Could sentences examples in English?
- People could do so much more for their community.
- I couldn’t have said it better myself.
- We could have left the party earlier.
- The girl was crying because she couldn’t find her parents.
- You could have stopped by the grocery store. We need some milk.
- I couldn’t have done it without you.
Can I ask you or may I ask you?
May I ask you a question
? Asking for permission. In addition, “may” version is more polite than the “can” version. Realistically speaking, both ask for permission and neither is offensive, but yes, “may” is still more polite than “can.”
Can could be used for future?
The use of ‘could’, ‘would’, or ‘will be’ all
imply future tense
. The past tense version would be: “You could not have made me happy, and I am convinced that I am the last woman in the world who could have made you so.”
What does if only I could mean?
Only if I could is
an explanation to myself
, a reason for why did not I do something I wanted to. The answer lies in the phrase itself. Two words in the phrase speak about the probability of doing it. A chance that we might not want to take.
Would and will use?
The main difference between will and would is that
will is used for real possibilities
while would is used for imagined situations in the future.
