Grammar 6.3: The verbs "saber" and "poder" plus infinitive
I do not understand this book of yours. There is literally no reason for this topic to be an entire grammar section on its own.
It's dead simple, basically:
Again:
If you want to express that anyone knows how to do something, you use the verb "saber" immediately followed by a verb in infinitive.
All other present-tense forms are completely normal:
nosotros sabemos
ellos/ellas/ustedes saben
tú sabes
él/ella/usted sabe
And again:
If you want to express that anyone is able to (ie, can) do something, you use the verb "poder" immediately followed by a verb in infinitive.
The only thing special about "poder" is that it stem-changes o to ue in the present tense.
yo puedo
tú puedes
él/ella/usted puede
nosotros podemos (remember--nosotros forms do not stem change in the present tense)
ellos/ellas/ustedes pueden
