In the classroom... May I drink water? Hi, everyone! I *had* a student who asked me "May I drink water, teacher?" last class. Should they ask "May I drink water?" or rather "May I go drink water?", given that the drinking fountain is outside the classroom? Or are both just equally fine? Do you have any other suggestion you find better? My impression: I have the impression that the person asking "May I drink water" wants to know if they are allowed to drink water in the classroom (from a bottle for example), while "May I go drink water?" means "May I go out and drink water?". Am I right? Thanks! [Feel free to correct my English mistakes! Thank you ^^]
