also can/ can also

[allaala]

Hello,

I have two sentences below.

1) It can also help the collector connect with others.
2) It also can help the collector connect with others.

The difference in the two sentences is the position of also and can.
I wonder whether the second sentence is grammatically correct and has the same meaning as the first sentence.

oh, Thank you!! so the 2) is wrong.

In my opinion: No, it's not wrong. I'd use #1, but I find #2 acceptable as well.

 

[perpend]

I also find both acceptable.

Either will work. I, too, have a preference for version (1) but I wouldn't class (2) as wrong if I heard it.
