The fundamental intention of this article is to find several soliton solutions to the generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony equation. The fractional derivatives are described in the conformable sense. These solutions are generated using the functional variable approach. Then, we acquire via this technique some distinctive solutions, such as the singular soliton, periodic soliton, bell-shaped soliton, and kink soliton solutions. The fundamental feature of the demonstrated method is that it’s convenient and provides precise, effective solutions to nonlinear equations. The solutions given will offer a thorough examination of this model and any associated occurrences.
