Lightbulb Re: will be able to

Thank you, riverkid.
I appreciate your comment very much.

So there ARE cases where you can use "can" and "is/am/are able to" to indeicate the future event.

May I ask you one last question?
Is there any case in which you can use "will be able to", but not "can"?
If the answer is Yes, a sample sentence would be greatly appreciated.


P.S. I have now registered and my new name is sakura-saku.
