"Tante cose possono ancora succedere."

Translation: Many things can still happen.

'So many ....' seems fair here. Is there a reason why not?

[David1945]

I agree and that answer is accepted now.

How would you translate 'many things could still happen' I submitted that and I failed..

[DexterBrow]

Ancora can't be again?? According to my dictionary it can

[BrucePlumb]

Yes, I also put "Many things can happen again" because that seemed the most direct literal translation, but when I thought about it that hardly makes sense in English, whereas "still happen" is perfectly natural. This is an unusual case of DL choosing the translation that makes more sense.

[Andy_Dufresne]

too many things can still happen

[ramvas]

I have answered like wise

[Reefspal]

why don't they allow 'yet'

[adion]

"Many things can yet happen" is accepted (Nov. '20)

[friswing]

And why isn't 'may' accepted as well as 'can'?

[LelandSun]

Yes, indeed, "Many things may yet happen" is another correct expression of the same idea.

While in other contexts, "may" conveys permission and "can" conveys ability, but both "may" and "can" can be used to convey possibility.

[giovanna60615]

"May" means "are allowed to happen". "Can" means "it is possible for things to happen".

[friswing]

Yes, but we are to translate Italian 'potere', does it have only 'can' as the same meaning, or both 'can' and 'may', as we have in Swedish?

[Margaret_S]

potere: to be able to

[FrankAtkin1]

why reject" lots of things"

[eleanombre]

"Many things can happen yet"?

[Reefspal]

or even ' Many things can yet happen'

[nuovaforesta]

'Plenty of things can still happen" - no?

[ColinDocke1]

"Plenty" should also be allowed here. "Plenty of things can still happen" or "plenty can still happen" both mean the same

[smk2478]

Why not "anything can still happen?"

[RanHinrichs]

So many things can happen then.

[Sebastian31143]

Why not Many things could still happen?

[ion1122]

There is a difference between "can" and "could" in English, and there is a corresponding difference in Italian.

The difference? "I can" is a straightforward affirmation. In contrast, "I could" implies I might or might not be able to do something, depending on conditions.

The Italian we are given here means "can" or "may". We would translate "could" instead if the Italian had used the subjunctive form "possano" or the conditional form "potrebbero" instead of the indicative form "possono".

[Duke_of_Earle]

The translation is poor English. A proper translation is "Many things still can happen or "Many things can happen still". "Can happen" is a compound verb. [https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=4385]
