是的,may的过去式和过去分词都是might。但若是在虚拟语气中,不这样认为,只是might比may的语气更委婉而已。若用于对过去事情的推测,则表示might比may的肯定程度更弱。
may的用法
1、表示可能性(to talk about a possible situation),如:
Those reports may prove to be false.
The chorus may look silly, but they sound wonderful.
2、表示请求许可(to politely give or ask for permission to do something),如:
May we come in?
That's all for now, you may go.
3、表达祝愿或希望(to express a wish or hope),如:
May they be very happy in the future.
May you succeed in the coming year.
