Key Mistakes

1. Confusing 'may' with 'might': While both express possibility, 'may' suggests a higher chance than 'might'. For example, "It may rain" is more certain than "It might rain."

2. Using 'may' for past situations: Remember, 'may' is not used for past events. Instead, use 'might have'. For example, "He may have gone" is incorrect; it should be "He might have gone."

3. Forgetting to use 'may' for formal requests: In formal situations, use 'may' instead of 'can'. For example, "May I help you?" is more polite than "Can I help you?"
