"She will know how to work well."

Translation: Ona będzie umiała dobrze pracować.

[Mark841597]

Why is "będzie umieć dobrze pracować" incorrect?

[pi_thon]

Shouldn't Ona będzie zdolna dobrze pracować be translated as She will be able to work well? (Instead of She will know how to work well)

[EuPoMes]

Ona będzie zdolna dobrze pracować = She will be able to work well.

Ona będzie wiedzieć jak dobrze pracować. = She will know how to work well.

być zdolnym / potrafić / umieć = be able

wiedzieć = to know

As an adjective "zdolny" works as english "talented" though.

Ania jest zdolna. => Ania is talented.

[kirezatav]

Can you also say \ona będzie umieć dobrze pracować'? I thought the two forms could be used interchangeably.

[Jellei]

One should avoid using a double infinitive, and "będzie umieć pracować" uses two infinitives. Therefore, modals should use the Past Tense forms.

[Mudkip20]

Very helpful, thanks! Indeed, it seems more elegant the right way.

[JPHQRO]

There's a different exercise where "będzie umieć czytać" is accepted. Your explanation makes sense (dziękuję!) but the inconsistency is confusing.

[Jellei]

I just removed it, thanks for reporting :)

[MichaelStr579048]

thanks for clearing that up. understood now

[pawelkowalski]

Ja bym jako polak przetłumaczył to zdanie tak:
Ona będzie wiedziała jak dobrze pracować

[omniduo]

W zasadzie, taka odpowiedź jest poprawna, tylko że jest bardziej dosłowna.

[mikezephyr]

Zdolna doesn't fit as it's an adjective. You're saying: "she will capable work". To make zdolna fit (which isn't wholly synonymous to umiała, btw), one can say: "ona będzie zdolna do dobrej roboty", "she'll be suited to good work/for good working"

[eannaoc]

"Ona będzie umieć dobrze pracować"?

[alik1989]

I haven't come across an official rule yet, which states that the future tense can't be formed with two infinitives, but a corpus search suggests that this construction is quite rare. And our team unanimously agreed that it's stylistically weird enough not to be accepted.

[eannaoc]

Thanks, didn't realise it was already asked too, sorry ha

[Marchfew]

As a native speaker I would say it also in that way.

But maybe I am wrong.
