Ability: can, could and be able to
Can and can't
Vicky: How many instruments can you play, Ann?
Ann: Three - the violin, the clarinet and the piano.
Vicky: That's terrific. You haven't got a piano here, though
Ann: No, but I can go to the music room in college and play
the one in there.
Vicky: I'm not musical at all I can't even sing.
We use can to say that something is possible: that someone has an ability (Ann can play the piano) or an opportunity (She can go to the music room). Can is usually pronounced /kən/ but sometimes we say /kəen/ The negative is cannot /'kəenot/ or can't /ka:nt/.
