Ability? Capability?
2017-08-08 Steven & friends 英語學習DayDayUp
Ability is more commonly used than capability, Ability is more about what a person can do, and Capability often refers to extremes of ability, what can possibly be done.
Another difference is that Capability tends to be Either-Or choice, while Ability is more about degrees. For example, you can say, "I have the ability to write, but I dont have the capability to write a novel".
