    There's a bit difference about these 2 words.

    Can = The ability.

    May = Permission.

    What about, "It may rain today." ? Whose permission did the rain get?

    May is actually uncertainty it just became idiomatic for permission because there's no better word.

    Well, he means in the form of questions.

    "Can I go skating?" = Do I have the ability to skate?
    "May I go skating?" = Will you give me permission to go skating?

    You only have the ability to do it once you have someone's permission

    Not if you don't have legs.

    So? Just because you got it off the last page doesn't mean it's not a useless thread. :mad:

    Guys, please stop arguing over the semantics of simple questions.

    It only makes you look like complete idiots.

    Let them, they just enjoy the finer things in life. Like arguing whether it's 'can' or 'may'.
