Explicación:
Básicamente son sinónimos y los dos quieren decir “tal vez”, “quizás”, o “puede ser”. La única diferencia de MAY y MIGHT cuando se usan para expresar posibilidad es que se dice que MAY cuando es un poco más positivo, más probable, casi una seguridad.
Por ejemplo, si te digo, “I may go,” la probabilidad que vaya es un poquito más grande que si te digo, “I might go.”
En el caso de las preguntas o para pedir permiso se usa el MAY.
