Q

Will in english expressed a future tense but not always.
For example when a sentence starts from will you please in english, that is a polite way of avoiding the imperative, also as would you please. This has nothing to do with future. So in these situations use Can you. (But not the future form of it, as it is not pertaining to future)

A

Puede

Q

Another example:
You have to wait
Means You must wait
You don’t have to wait
Literal translation means you must not wait (if done by usual method in spanish), and this is not what we want.
You dont have to wait, doesn’t mean you must not, means its not necessary

A

You don’t need to wait
No necessiata esperar
Or
It is not neccesary that you wait (has element of doubt/uncertainty)
No es neccasario que espere (switch tracks here and not used espera because you switch tracks for expressing doubt and uncertainty)

Q

Some verbs have a character to express line in the past and not dot:
I knew it
I wanted to see it
I could (prob, could in eng represents two different tenses, past (was able)(couldn’t find it), not in past (would be able) (could you come with me), so with could know if could past or not past), if not past then for example could you tell me (on or above the now line, so not past):
For could in past: I couldn’t see it (i was not able to find it, dot from)
But mostly expresses line in past : I couldn’t do it

A

Sabeeya (dot form would be Supe but only used to express knew only at a moment or found out)
Queria verlo
Podria
No pude verlo (dot form, couldn’t see it at that moment)
No podeeya asirlo
