(Use modal auxiliary showing ‘certainty’ and rewrite the sentence)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1) If u weren't such a useless ignorant idiot, you'd understand.

2) A stone can certainly bruise.

Answer 2

(1) You’d understand unless you were an ignorant idiot.

To cross-check the meaning of your sentence, compare it with the meaning of the original sentence.

• Meaning of the original sentence- Shift the clauses to simplify the meaning. You’d understand if you weren’t such an ignorant idiot.
• Meaning of the rewritten sentence- You will understand if you are not an ignorant idiot.

Therefore, our usage of ‘unless’ is correct.

(2) A stone will bruise.

‘Can’ indicates possibility, but ‘will’ indicates certainty.

‘Might’ indicates a very small possibility.
