情态动词本身有一定的含义,表示说话人对有关行为或事物的态度和看法。情态动词无人称和数的变化,不能单独作谓语,只能和动词原形一起构成谓语。may和might都属于这类词。
Presentation
1.may与might表示“可能”
may和 might都可以用来表示推测,意为“也许;可能”。其否定形式分别是may not和might not,意为“可能不”。
You may meet her at the party.你可能会在聚会上遇到她。
My sister might not be at home.我姐姐可能不在家。
[提示] 在表示将来的可能情况时,may比might表示的可能性大一些;而might语气更加委婉,表示的可能性比较小。
