We use the modal can to make general
statements about what is possible:
It can be very cold in winter. (= It is
sometimes very cold in winter)
You can easily lose your way in the dark. (=

We use could as the past tense of can:
It could be very cold in winter. (=Sometimes
it was very cold in winter.)
You could lose your way in the
dark. (=People often lost their way in the
dark)
We use could to show that something is possible
in the future, but not certain:
If we don’t hurry we could
be late. (=Perhaps/Maybe we will be late)
We use could have to show that something is/was
possible now or at some time in the past:
It’s ten o’clock. They could have
arrived now.
They could have arrived hours ago.
Impossibility:
We use the negative can’t or cannot to show that
something is impossible:
