OUGHT TO -SHOULD 

a) Se pueden utilizar indistintamente para dar consejos y hacer recomendaciones, aunque should es mucho más frecuente. Ought to apenas se usa en negativa e interrogativa.


CAN, COULD, BE ABLE TO 

USOS DEL CAN:

 a) Para expresar habilidad o capacidad: “saber”, “poder”. 

b) Con acciones que empiezan en el pasado pero todavía tienen continuidad en el presente. 

c) Para hacer peticiones, dar y pedir permiso de manera informal. 

d) Para indicar posibilidad: We can do that later. (Podemos hacer eso luego). 


 En negativa tiene, además de estos, otros dos usos: 

e) Para expresar deducción. 

f ) Para indicar prohibición. You can´t smoke here. (No puedes fumar aquí). 

BE ABLE TO también indica habilidad y posibilidad como can, pero en los tiempos que le faltan a este verbo modal. Will you be able to do it before six o´clock?. (¿Podrás hacerlo antes de las 6?)


COULD 

a) Se usa para expresar habilidad y capacidad en el pasado. 

b) Para hacer peticiones o pedir un favor de manera más formal que con can. 

c) Para hacer sugerencias. 

d) Para indicar posibilidad, pero dando a entender que es más remota que si usamos can. We could go on friday afternoon.. (Podríamos ir el viernes por la tarde).

a) Ambos verbos expresan la posibilidad de que algo ocurra en el presente o en el futuro, sin ser seguro. Como hemos visto antes, can también expresa posibilidad pero denota que las circunstancias reales lo permiten. 

b) May también se utiliza para pedir y dar permiso de una forma más educada que con can.
