Some equivalents of modal auxiliaries

Be able to

Be able to is often used instead of can or could.

I am able to help her. OR I can help her.
She can do this. OR She is able to do this.

Be to

The structure be + to is often used to indicate simple future like will or shall.

Sometime be + to is used to express a command.
