GERUNDS : (Danh động từ)
Danh động từ là động từ thêm –ing và có đặc tính như một danh từ. GERUND = VERB-ING

Danh động từ được dùng sau các động từ như (enjoy, avoid, like, hate, dislike, practice, keep, give up, stop, escape, delay,…) và cụm từ như (look forward to, object to,…) và sau các giới từ (at, in, on, by, for, of, with,…) TRỪ “TO”

E.g. : She can’t study computer Can you play guitar ? Can I go out ?
COULD : là dạng quá khứ của CAN. COULD dùng để diễn tả khả năng ở quá khứ, dùng để xin phép hoặc cho phép như CAN (trong cách nói thân mật và COULD được xem là lịch sự hơn)
