KRML LYadded a note 5 years ago

note (en-ru)

Which sentence is correct? And could you explain why? I saw the first sentence on a website but I thought an infinitive has to follow могут, is this not always the case?

Другие могут увидят что-то совсем незначительное.

Другие могут увидеть что-то совсем незначительное.

The first one is definitely incorrect

KRML LYadded a comment 5 years ago

Or would видеть be better?

Oleg Shevaldyshevadded a comment 5 years ago

the second sentence is right
the use of видеть is right as well but the meaning is slightly different

like Sherlock used to say - you see but you don't notice

Alex Svadded a comment 5 years ago

"заметить" or "замечать" would be better

Could, not would - depends

The first one is definitely incorrect +1
The second is correct.
Для исправления ошибки уберите слово "могут" т.к. оно не согласуется со словом "увидят". Если есть правило на эту тему, то я его не знаю и многие люди тоже не знают. Если искать в Google, то можно найти. Для человека, у которого русский язык родной - это предложение однозначно воспринимается как неправильное.
