DEFINITION  

Well, dari video di atas kalian sudah dapat gambaran tentang materi Ability kan ya…sekarang kalian simak penjelasan lebih lengkapnya di bawah ini. Let’s check it out …

STRUKTUR TEKS

Capability artinya kemampuan/kesanggupan untuk melakukan/ mengerjakan  sesuatu. Untuk mengekspresikan kemampuan atau kapabilitas dalam Bahasa Inggris, kita dapat menggunakan modal “cancould, atau be able” yang artinya “dapat/bisa”

1. Can

Can dapat digunakan untuk menyatakan kapabilitas dalam bentuk present tense/masa sekarang.

Pola umum :  S + Can + V1.

Perhatikan ! Can selalu diikuti kata kerja bentuk pertama.

Contoh dalam Kalimat:

  • Jono can climb a tree. (Jono dapat memanjat pohon)
  • Siti can cook fried rice. (Siti bisa memasak nasi goreng).
  • Father and I can swim very well. (Ayah dan aku bisa berenang dengan baik).

Untuk menyatakan ketidakmampuan dapat ditambahkan –not, (cannot/can’t) Contoh:

  • Tiara cannot ride a bicycle.
  • Mother can’t run fast
  • A penguin can’t fly.

Untuk membentuk kalimat tanya (interogative sentence), maka Can diletakkan di depan kalimat.

Contoh:

  • Can he sing a song? Yes, he can/no, he cannot
  • Can a gecko crawl? Yes, it can
  • Can you come to my birthday party? No, I can’t. I’m busy.

Menggunakan can dengan Question Words (5W + 1 H):

  • What can I do for you?
  • Why can’t you come to my house?
  • How can you fly a kite?

2. Be able to

Bentuk ini dapat juga digunakan untuk menyatakan kapabilitas. Be (am, is, are/was, were) dapat digunakan baik present tense maupun past tense. 

Pola umum : S + be able to + V1. 

Contoh:

  • She is able to finish the job herself.
  • Mother is able to cook delicious menus.
  • I am able to fix the leakage.

Untuk menyatakan kalimat negatif atau ketidakmampuan dapat ditambahkan –not setelah to be/be.

Contoh:

  • We are not able to continue the journey.
  • Ita is not able to come on time.
  • The dog is not able to overtake the cat anymore.

Untuk membuat kalimat Tanya (interogative) be diletakkan di depan kalimat.

Contoh:

  • Is uncle Ben able to make a delicious cakes? Yes he is. No, he is not.
  • Are they able to compete in international level? Yes, they are. No they are not

3. Could

Pada dasarnya, can  & could memiliki arti yang sama. Can merupakan bentuk present sedangkan could merupakan bentuk pastnya. Namun, penggunaannya dalam kalimat terkadang bisa berbeda.
–    Could digunakan untuk sesuatu yang mungkin atau memungkinkan, namun tidak pasti.

 Contoh: She could be there.

  • Could juga bisa digunakan untuk sesuatu yang mungkin di masa lalu. Could di sini diikuti dengan have.

Contoh: It’s already dark. The students could have returned home.

  • Could juga digunakan untuk ability tapi di masa lampau.

Contoh: My father could play piano when he was in senior high school

  • Could juga digunakan untuk meminta dan memberi izin, namun dalam bahasa formal atau lebih sopan.

Contoh: Could I get more paper, please?

  • Untuk melakukan penawaran, kita juga bisa menggunakan can dan could. Can digunakan untuk situasi informal, sedangkan could untuk situasi formal.

Contoh: Can I help you?

Could I help you?

  • Untuk memberi saran, kita bisa menggunakan could.

Contoh: You could finish your homework today think we could do this together.

  2. Area 52 becomes the first and only online dispensary to ship premium cannabis legally to all
    50 states. This breakthrough service follows their strict compliance with the
    2018 Farm Bill, making quality weed available to
    everyone, regardless of local laws.

    “We’re the only company offering this nationwide shipping service for premium cannabis products,” said Area 52’s founder.
    “While others can’t or won’t ship across state lines, we’ve found the legal path forward.”

    Area 52’s federally compliant products include:

    THCA Flower – Diamond-dusted premium buds

    Pre-Rolls – Ready-to-smoke in multiple strains

    THC Gummies – Potent UFO MAX (15mg THC) and other varieties

    Vape Products – Fast-acting THCA disposables and cartridges

    Functional Blends – Sleep, Energy, and Mushroom formulations

    Unlike competitors, all Area 52 products ship legally nationwide by containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC while delivering powerful effects.

    “No other company can legally ship weed to all 50 states like we can,” the founder emphasized.

    “This is a game-changer for people without local dispensary access.”

    Every product includes a 60-day money-back guarantee and orders
    over $110 ship free.

    Want legal weed delivered to your door? Area 52 is the only
    online dispensary that can ship to your state.
