I often get confused regarding the uses of will and wouldand can and could. Would you please help to clarify them for me?
Roger Woodham replies:
Can and could are used in a variety of different ways for differentpurposes. We can use them to talk about ability and possibility, to makerequests and to ask for permission.
can and could: to express ability
Here the distinction of can for present scenarios andcould for past situations is preserved:
He could read by the time he was four years old and nowhe can speak six languages fluently.
I couldn抰 find my Tom Jones CD when I was looking for it the other day, butnow I can see that you have it.
can and could / will and would: to make requests
When making requests, can and could are both used torefer to present and future situations. When we are asking something of others,will and would are also commonly used alternatives. Compare the following:
Could I have another cup of tea, please?
Can I have some more tea, please?
Could you pick Lauren up from school for me this afternoon, please?
Can you pick up Lauren from school for this afternoon, please?
Would you collect Lauren from school for me this afternoon, please?
Will you fetch Lauren from school for me this afternoon, please?
Note from the above examples that could and would soundmarginally more polite than can and will.
Note that if we are talking about ability to do something, rather than making arequest, it will be necessary to use will be able to talk about future ability:
Will you be able to pick Lauren up from school thisafternoon by any chance?
Note also that if we want to sound particularly politewhen making a request of others, we can use the would you mind + verb-ingconstruction:
Would you mind picking Lauren up from school? ~ No, Idon抰 mind. It抯 no trouble.
We can also use will to express the speaker抯 willingnessor intention to do things:
We haven抰 got any paper for the photocopier. ~ I抣l getsome for you.
Can you lend me fifty pounds for the weekend? I抣l pay you back on Monday.
can and could: to ask for and give permission
Can is more commonly used than could in these contexts.May is a further alternative:
Can / May I help you with that? ~ Yes, you can.
Can / May I carry that for you? ~ Yes, you may.
Can I enter the room while the recording is in progress? ~ No, you may not.
Can I listen to it afterwards? ~ No, you can抰.
Note in the example above that we cannot use couldn抰when refusing permission.
reported speech
In reported speech, would and could or wouldbe able are used after reporting verbs in the past tense where willand can are used in direct speech. This is because there is a differencein time, place and speaker:
I抣l tell Mary about the meeting you抳e arranged for nextSaturday.
He said he would tell Mary about the meeting tonight, but she抯 not here yet.
I can look after Jenny if you抮e busy.
He said he would be able to look after Jenny if I was busy.
However, would and could do not change inreported speech, if they are already present in direct speech:
It would be great if you could come to Manchester too.
He thought it would be great if we could go to Manchester as well.
conditional structures and future situations
To talk about things that will probably not happen, weuse a past tense in the if-clause and would, or sometimes could,in the main clause. Compare examples above and below:
If I knew where she was living now, I would tell you. ButI don抰 know.
To talk about things that may happen in the real future,we use a present tense in the if-clause and will, orsometimes can, in the main clause:
I抣l try and repair your bike tomorrow, if I have enoughtime.
I抣l try to mend your bike tomorrow, if I can find enough time. |
