may กับ might ใช้ต่างกันอย่างไร

[Suthawadee C.]

งงตัวเองมานานแล้วค่ะ คือติดคำว่า may เช่น

 - Don't run in the bathroom, floor is slippery, you may fall down.

 - Please sit on your car-seat. It's dangerous to stand in the car. you may get hurt when I have an immergency break

แล้ว might ใช้ยังไง (ลืมหมดแล้วค่ะ) แล้วประโยคที่ใช้มาข้างบนใช้ได้ไม๊คะ

[Clamp ka]

may กับ might จะต่างกันที่ความเป็นไปได้ค่ะ



May / might

may

We can use 'may' to ask for permission. However this is rather formal and not used very often in modern spoken English

•May I borrow your pen?
•May we think about it?
•May I go now?

We use 'may' to suggest something is possible

•It may rain later today.
•I may not have time to do it today.
•Pete may come with us


might

We use 'might' to suggest a small possibility of something. Often we read that 'might' suggests a smaller possibility that 'may', there is in fact little difference and 'might is more usual than 'may' in spoken English.

•She might be at home by now but it's not sure at all.
•It might rain this afternoon.
•I might not have time to go to the shops for you.
•I might not go.


For the past, we use 'might have'.

•He might have tried to call while I was out.
•I might have dropped it in the street.
