Also spelled ulsuitda

can; is possible

Covers both being able to do something and something being possible at all: you can eat it in Gubat, you can go inside, there could be a situation like this, you can go through hell even at nine. The negative counterpart is 을 수 없다, meaning there is no way to. Written 을 수 있다 after a consonant and ㄹ 수 있다 after a vowel, it is the same ending either way, and it stacks happily with other endings, as in the very common "I think I can".
