Tips to remember the French word “nous pouvons”:
– Break it down: “Nous” means “we,” and “pouvons” comes from the verb “pouvoir,” which means “to be able to” or “can.” Remembering that “pouvoir” is similar to the English word “power” may help, as when you “can” do something, you have the “power” to do it.
– Associate “pouvons” with the English phrase “we have the power,” to strengthen the memory link.

Explanations:
– “Nous pouvons” is the first person plural (we) present indicative tense of the irregular French verb “pouvoir.”
– It is used when expressing ability, possibility, or permission in the present tense for the subject “we.”
