DÊ RESPOSTAS
![]() | Lydia_PMarch 2018 May is used when there is a possibility that something happens: it may rain. may is also used to to express opportunity or permission: You may enter. May I go to the bathroom? Must is used to express something you are obliged to do look here http://www.dictionary.com/browse/may?s=ts http://www.dictionary.com/browse/must?s=t |
RobertBMarch 2018 Good answer. Although the interplay of these words can become complex. In legal language, 'may' may have the meaning of 'must'. And when a monarch says 'You may leave', it means 'You must leave'.

Michelle978March 2018 Must is when you HAVE to do something. May is used when you might do something, but not sure. Maybe 40% chance you'll do it. "I may join the gym, I'm not sure."
