Suppose someone asks me about the status of a sentence in spoken English; ie, whether it is natural or not and I go:
1) This is a normal way to express that meaning. (this = your sentence)
2) This would be a normal way to express that meaning.
3) This will be a normal way to express that meaning.
4) This should be a normal way to express that meaning.
5) This may/might/could be a normal way to express that meaning.
6) This can be a normal way to express that meaning.
I think sentence 6) is not possible, but the rest more or less mean the same thing, with different degrees of probability. Am I right?
