Linking words are something that can really help our fluency in English, as they help us to create longer sentences. For example:
I bought a dog because I really wanted a pet. I bought a dog because I really wanted a pet. However, now I wish I hadn't! Some linking words come in the middle of the sentence: because and so but until then Whereas some linking words join two sentences and often start with a capital letter: However Nevertheless Therefore In conclusion To summarise Etc.

Can't is often used when we think that something is impossible at the present moment.
"Helen can't be in Spain because I saw her driving past my house this morning." Can't have + past participleCan't have + past participle is used when we are sure that something did not happen in the past. "He can't have been at the meeting, he's on a business trip this week." "They can't have bought it today because the shops are closed."
