大家對英語的語法了解有多少呢?如果不知道的可以看小編是怎么表達(dá)的，接下來，小編給大家準(zhǔn)備了關(guān)于語法may的用法解析,歡迎大家參考與借鑒。
關(guān)于語法may的用法解析
(1)“may”表達(dá)許可
例：You may have the cake now.(現(xiàn)在你可以吃蛋糕了。)
例：May I come in?(我可以進(jìn)來嗎?)
解說 表達(dá)“許可”無“may…”與“can…”的區(qū)別：
“may…”通常表達(dá)說話者的許可。
例：You may go home now. (=I allow you to go home now.)
(你現(xiàn)在可以回家。=現(xiàn)在我準(zhǔn)你回家。)
例：May I borrow your towel?(我可以借用你的毛巾嗎?)
No, you may not.(不行，你不可以借用我的毛巾。)
“can…”表達(dá)“許可”時用法比較隨便。
例：You can go home now.
本句可作如下的兩種解釋：
1.你現(xiàn)在可以回家?！覝?zhǔn)你回家。
2.你現(xiàn)在可以回家?！缋蠋熞肄D(zhuǎn)告你說“你現(xiàn)在可以回家”，或者如既然你已把工作做完了，按規(guī)定“你現(xiàn)在可以回家”等。
第2.的解釋法并非說話者的“許可”。換言之，“can…”可以表達(dá)第三者的“許可”，或“客觀條件的許可”。例如我們看到一個男生要走進(jìn)女用洗手間，我們就可以對他說：
That’s a lady’s toilet. You can’t go in there.
像這種場合，假定你說“You may not go in there.”并不很通順，也會被誤為你是洗手間的管理員了。
請再注意下列兩句意思的區(qū)別：
例：May I smoke here?
(我可以在此吸煙嗎?——請示對方的“許可”。)
例：Can I smoke here?
(這里我可以吸煙嗎?——詢問對方這里是否禁止吸煙。)
(2)“may”表達(dá)可能性
S + may be…= maybe S + be…
S + may + V…= maybe S + (will)+V…
例：The news may be true.
=Maybe [Perhaps] the news is true.
(或許這消息是真的。)
例：She may come to your birthday party tomorrow.
=Maybe [Perhaps] she’ll come to your birthday party tomorrow.
(或許她明天會來參加你的生日宴會。)
解說 “may…”表達(dá)“可能性”時其意思等于“maybe”或“perhaps”，即“或許;也許”?！癿ight…”也一樣可用于表達(dá)現(xiàn)在或?qū)淼目赡苄?，只是語氣較為宛轉(zhuǎn)或?qū)赡苄杂X得較為不確定。
He might have a hand in that case.
=Maybe [Perhaps] he has a hand in that case.
(或許他涉及那個案子。)
表達(dá)可能性的“may/might…”通常不用于疑問句?？赡苄缘囊蓡柾ǔ６际褂谩癈an…?”或者“Do you think…?”，例如：
This news may be true.
Can this news be true?
Do you think this news is true?
表達(dá)過去的可能性則使用“may/might have +p. p.”的句式，例如：He might have left for the United1 States.(他可能已到美國去了。)
(3)“may”表達(dá)目的
句型 S+V in order that +S+may+V…
S+V-(e)d in order that +S+might+V…
例：He studies hard (in order) to get passed in the exam.
=He studies hard (in order) that he may get passed in the exam.
(為了要考試及格他努力在用功。)
例：He sold his house (in order) to pay his debt2.
=He sold his house (in order) that he might pay his debt.
(為了要還債他把房子賣掉了。)
解說 如例所示表達(dá)目的時使用“to V…”比之使用“that +S+ may/might V…”較普通。“in order to V…/in order that +S+ may/might V…”是表達(dá)目的強調(diào)句式。
(4)“may”表達(dá)祈愿
句型 may you /he …+ V…
例：May you succeed.
=I hope [wish] you’ll succeed.
(祝你成功。)
例：May God3 save our country.
(愿上帝保佑我們的國家。)
(5)“May”的慣用表達(dá)句式
句型 may well +V…=there is good reason for +O +to V…
例：You may well say so.
=There is good reason for you to say so.
(你很有理由這么說。——難怪你這么說。)
句型 may/might as well +V…=had better +V…
例：We may [might] as well start at once.
=We had better start at once.
(我們最好立刻動身吧。)
解說 本句式常用于表達(dá)提議或勸告。
