may的用法 - 百度知道 may的用法表示许可或征求对方的许可,有“可以”的意思。例如:You may go now 你可以走了。May I use your computer? 我用一下你的电脑可以吗在口语中 can 可以代替 may 表示许可,但 can 较随便,may 更正式。例
may 和 can对于初学者来说,有没有必要区别?是否可以全部视作can? - 知乎 May含有possibly的意思,相当于‘’可能‘’;它和can的关系可以理解成:在某些时候或某种情况下can的意思。
“maybe”和“may be”有什么区别?_百度知道 It may be just a joke 句子1中,我们给原句里加了一个副词maybe,如果把剩下的部分去掉句子依然完整;而句子2中,我们给原句加的则是一个情态动词may,情态动词后要用动词原形,所以我们把原句中的is还原成了be,这时候才出现了may be这个形态,如果把may be去掉
