Question

Rewrite the following sentence using 'can':
There would still be situations of temporary poverty.

Answer 1

The answer is:

There can still be situations of temporary poverty.

'Can' is a modal verb just like 'would'. The meaning differs though, as 'can' expresses possibility whereas 'would' expresses an action that will happen.

But, their placement would be the same in a sentence. Hence 'can' directly replaces 'would' in this sentence.
