Introducing skills and discussing a start date
Reuse the ability pattern for skills: . here marks the language or means. The verb keeps ; do not add another polite ending to the first stem.
Permission uses , while ability uses . asks May I think it over? says I can start.
A calendar start date uses : . A deadline uses : . Korean puts the time before the verb. Reuse the past to explain where you worked or lived before.
