3 be able to

Answer 2

1. Film producers can include songs.
2. They can create very realistic special effects.
3. We'll be able to feel the character's emotions.

Now, to answer your questions:

1. "Can" expresses the ability to do something in the present or the future, so it indicates both ability and possibility.

2. The negative forms of sentences 1–3 would be:

3. Film producers cannot include songs.

4. They cannot create very realistic special effects.

5. We won't be able to feel the character's emotions.

6. "Can" and "could" generally stay the same with all persons (I can, you can, he/she/it can, we can, they can). However, "will be able to" changes slightly in the third person singular form, where "he/she/it will be able to" is used. The rest of the forms remain the same (I will be able to, you will be able to, we will be able to, they will be able to).
