Use can instead of might #17

Closed GetContented closed 8 years ago

GetContented commented 8 years ago

It's more idiomatic and natural to use "can" here instead of "might".

"You can provide an option" talks about ability, gives permission and explains possiblilty here. "You might provide an option" talks about that it will or won't happen in the future, but says nothing about what is possible or permissible here.

The German können, wollen, müssen, sollen and dürfen are all quite a bit different than their usual direct translations into English, sadly. English is a LOT less precise.
