Could I have helped grammar?
Could have, should have, would have. These past modal verbs are all used hypothetically, to talk about things that didn’t really happen in the past. 1: Could have + past participle means that something was possible in the past, or you had the ability to do something in the past, but that you didn’t do it.
Should it have been?
Use “should have been” to express what you think should have happened, but did not happen. Often, you’ll hear this phrase used in arguments or regrets about the past.
Can vs could grammar?
Can, like could and would, is used to ask a polite question, but can is only used to ask permission to do or say something (“Can I borrow your car?” “Can I get you something to drink?”). Could is the past tense of can, but it also has uses apart from that–and that is where the confusion lies.
Which is more polite can you or could you?
To answer the question: “could” definitely sounds slightly more polite than “can” to a native speaker since it is less direct and more deferential as a result. “Could” is a form of “can”, so both are technically asking “are you able to…”. This is not the difference between the two.
Can could be used for future?
Possibility. We often use could to express possibility in the present and the future.
