Re: May\might 2 He may have died in the accident. - Means status is unknown . Let me try to make it a little more simple.
Kid : " Dad can i have a dollar coin ?"
Dad : "I may be able to give you a dollar coin .Let me check my wallet" .
*checks*
Dad : " Aww sorry son , im out of coins "
This shows one is not 100% certain about the situation .
If you wanted the sentence to show that the driver survived , the better word to replace " may " with is could . |
