Can you correct my corrections.

Two years ago I was really good at Spanish. Then when I finsihed it at school I didn't keep it up at all, and I have forgotten loads. I'm sure I could easily pick...

Spanish:

saber = to know how to do something.
Poder = to physically be able to do something
Conocer = to know someone / something, be familiar with.

E.g. S

That's not really correct because уметь means "to know how(to do smth)"[/quote]

Oh yeh, its like in Spanish

I think ты можешь is like - you can physically do it. E.g.
Ты можешь плавать - You can swim (you know how to)
Можно плавать - You can swim (e.g. It is allowed)
