Reflection

Might and May

Both may and might are used to express the possibility of some future action; might is more tentative than may.

The weather may/might be better tomorrow. Craig may/might know his results soon.

Use might:

• In formal situations.

  Might I suggest a different solution?

• When someone is trying to persuade another person to do something, perhaps with some degree of irritation.

  You might give me some cake too, Lucy.

•  In a conditional sentence, the if clause can be in the present or the past tense. If Louisa comes, she might look after the children.

Use may to:

• Ask permission in a more formal way than can. May I have a drink, please?

• Give permission, particularly when applied to you, he, she, they or a proper noun, to show that the speaker is allowing something to happen. You may go now.
