Fill in the blanks with ‘may and might’. I am confused about how to know which modal verb is appropriate and suitable to put here because both can be used interchangeably. 1) __________ I borrow your pen? 2) It ________ rain this afternoon. 3) I _________not have time to go to the shops for you. 4) __________we think about it? 5) I _________ not go to the park today. 6) __________ I go now? 7) She __________ be at home by now but I'm not sure at all.

1. May I borrow your pen? 2. It might rain this afternoon. 3. I might not have time to go to the shops for you. 4. May we think about it? 5.I may not go to the park today. 6. May I go now? 7. She might be at home by now, but I'm not sure. Both "may" and "might" are modal verbs that are used to express possibility or permission. In general, "may" is used to express a more likely possibility, while "might" is used to express a less likely possibility. However, in some cases, they can be used interchangeably without changing the meaning of the sentence. "May" and "might" are both modal verbs that express possibility or permission. "May" is used to express a more likely possibility or to ask for permission. For example, "May I go to the restroom?" or "It may rain tomorrow." "Might" is used to express a less likely possibility or to suggest a hypothetical situation. For example, "I might go to the movies tonight" (suggesting that it's not a definite plan) or "It might be better to take the train instead of driving" (suggesting a hypothetical scenario). While there are some differences in usage, "may" and "might" can often be used interchangeably without changing the meaning of the sentence. Let me know if you have any other question!! :)
