Be able to vs can or could = what's the difference?
'Can' is a modal verb.
This means that you have to be flexible when using it in different tenses, and often it's better to use 'be able to' instead of 'can' or 'could'.
❌ I will can (future)
✅ I will be able to
❌ I've could (Present Perfect)
✅ I've been able to
Thanks for your feedback
