We use may or might to:
EXAMPLE: They might go out later when the weather improves. (For these two examples, we can also use might visit or may go.)
EXAMPLE: She may have
been asleep when the burglar entered the house.
EXAMPLE: The police think he might
have seen the robbery and are looking for him.
EXAMPLE: If I met her again, I might
ask for her telephone number.
(It is quite unlikely that I meet her again, so I don’t
get to ask for her telephone number. We do not use may
here.)
EXAMPLE: We may/might be going
to Australia
next month. // We may/might go to
Australia
next month. (These sentences do not change in meaning)
