    Could is also used in a conditional way sometimes."I can go to the store". A simple statement of ability to get to the store. "I could go to the store" people will listen for a "but" or "if" to follow it - it's conditional. I could go to the store, but I don't feel like it. I could go to the store if my car will (or would) start.

    I think that "Could" generates more humility towards a person. Thanks teacher, I love your classes.

    Ma'am you are speaking in a language that, everybody on this planet could understand you.
    I am from India and english learner. I like your way you teach with great patience and always you make your students understand the concepts. It's a great thing.
    Because there's a saying that, "someone is not the teacher who teaches but someone is the real teacher who make their students understand....
    Definitely I would like you to make us understand the full concept of can/could.. like.
    Can/ could + be, have, have been, have had, have to , have had to etc. The total use of can & could in another video soon.

    علموا اولادكم:
    1. عندما تمشّط شعر طفلك، فأخبره أنك تفعل ذلك لأن النبي ﷺ قال (من كان له شَعْرٌ فلْيُكرِمْه)
    2. عندما تُعطّر ابنك، أخبره بأنك تفعل ذلك إقتداء للنبي ﷺ (حُبب إلي من دنياكم الطيب والنساء، وجعلت قرة عيني في الصلاة)
    3. عندما يذهب ابنك إلى المدرسة، ذكره بقول النبي ﷺ (من سلك طريقًا يلتمس فيه علمًا، سهَّل الله له طريقًا إلى الجنَّة)
    4. عندما تبتسم لابنك، أخبره بأن النبي ﷺ قال: (تبسمك في وجه أخيك لك صدقة)
    5. عندما تمدح ابنك، أخبره بقول النبي ﷺ (والكلمة الطيبة صدقة)
    6. عندما تفرغ من طعامك لابنك أخبره بانك فعلت ذلك عملا بقوله ﷺ (إفراغك من دلوك في دلو أخيك لك صدقة)
    7. عندما تكون في مجلس فيه كبار بالسن اطلب من ابنك توقيرهم لأننا بذلك نطيع النبي ﷺ بقوله (ليس منا من لم يرحم صغيرنا و يوقر كبيرنا)
    وهكذا اربطوا تصرفات أبنائكم بالسنة و بسيرة النبي ﷺ و علموهم الأحاديث الشريفة.
