Talking About Uncertain Futures\n\nWe use modal verbs to show how likely something is.\n\nExamples:\n\n* “It might rain later.”\n* “She may be late.”\n* “He will probably call tonight.”\n\n## 2\\. Using Might and May\n\n**Might** and **may** show possibility and uncertainty.\n\n**Key points:**\n\n* **Might** often suggests a slightly lower probability than **may**, but in most cases they are interchangeable.\n* Both **may** and **might** are used when we are not sure about the outcome.\n\n**Examples:**\n\n* “I might go out tonight.”\n* “She may come to the meeting.”\n* “They might travel next month.”\n* “He may not agree with the plan.”\n* “I might see you at the party.”\n\n**Note:** “May” is slightly more formal than “might” and is often used in written English or polite suggestions.\n\n## 3\\. Using Will Probably\n\n**Will probably** is used when the speaker expects something to happen — it is more certain than may\u002Fmight, but still not 100%.\n\nWord order: **will probably + verb** is most common. **probably will + verb** is also possible (often for emphasis).\n\nExamples:\n\n* “He will probably pass the exam.”\n* “They will probably arrive late.”\n* “I will probably finish my homework tonight.”\n* “The team will probably win the match.”\n\n**She will probably be late.** \u002F **She probably will be late.**\n\nNegative: “She probably won’t come.” (avoid using *won’t probably come*.)\n\n## 4\\. Comparing Levels of Certainty\n\nNotice how certainty increases.\n\nIn many everyday situations, **may** and **might** have the same meaning; context is more important than the exact word.\n\nExamples:\n\n* **She might call.** → Less certain\n* **She may call.** → Slightly more formal, uncertain\n* **She will probably call.** → More certain, speaker expects it to happen\n\n## 5\\. Common Mistake to Avoid\n\nDo not add **to** after modals.\n\nExamples:\n\n* “She might to come.” (Incorrect)\n* “She might come.” (Correct)\n\n## 6\\. Key Takeaway\n\n* **Might \u002F may** → uncertain possibility.\n* **Will probably** → expected but not certain.","en","B1",65,[12],{"id":13,"name":14,"level":9,"language":8,"isCompleted":15,"completionPercentage":16,"totalExercises":17,"completedExercises":16,"vocabularyLists":18},"019aef28-d4de-7813-9787-df8fb1000ec3","Might, May, Will probably",false,0,2,[19],{"id":20,"title":21,"grammarTopic":22,"displayOrder":23,"vocabularyListWords":24,"isPublished":39},"019bccd7-2120-75c1-a350-00074ef15db1","Modals (might, may and will probably)","\u002Fapi\u002Fgrammar_topics\u002F019aef28-d4de-7813-9787-df8fb1000ec3",41,[25,47,64],{"id":26,"vocabularyWord":27,"displayOrder":40},"019bdbe3-385b-73d1-b472-6ccaaaf94f61",{"id":28,"word":29,"frequency":30,"level":31,"language":8,"audioFilePath":32,"partsOfSpeech":33,"audio":39,"audioUrl":46},"019b4697-7051-7b93-b20f-3f5c0c491b4f","might",7,"A2","tts_71c27d3cc7a93b15_en-US.mp3",[34,41],{"id":35,"partOfSpeech":36,"definition":37,"exampleSentences":38,"isPrimary":39,"meaningOrder":40},"019b9305-624c-7b59-9d97-d31063f0dbe5","VERB","Used to indicate a possibility or a suggestion.","We might go to the beach tomorrow if it’s sunny.\nShe might join us for dinner.",true,1,{"id":42,"partOfSpeech":43,"definition":44,"exampleSentences":45,"isPrimary":15,"meaningOrder":17},"019b9305-624c-7c01-9d97-d31064dbba85","NOUN","Physical strength or power.","He used all his might to lift the heavy box.\nThe might of the storm surprised everyone.","\u002Fuploads\u002Faudio\u002Ftts_71c27d3cc7a93b15_en-US.mp3",{"id":48,"vocabularyWord":49,"displayOrder":17},"019bdbe3-385b-7dd9-b472-6ccaab6378c6",{"id":50,"word":51,"frequency":52,"level":31,"language":8,"audioFilePath":53,"partsOfSpeech":54,"audio":39,"audioUrl":63},"019b850c-a403-74e7-a074-6c6cdb639a6a","may",8,"tts_bb1bb5848b029fa8_en-US.mp3",[55,59],{"id":56,"partOfSpeech":36,"definition":57,"exampleSentences":58,"isPrimary":39,"meaningOrder":40},"019b92e0-46ab-7823-91a6-18ae7b0bb4ac","Used to express possibility or permission.","You may leave the room now.\nIt may rain later today.",{"id":60,"partOfSpeech":43,"definition":61,"exampleSentences":62,"isPrimary":15,"meaningOrder":40},"019b92e0-46ab-78cb-91a6-18ae7b8e3499","The fifth month of the year in the Gregorian calendar.","We will go on vacation in May.\nMay is known for its beautiful flowers.","\u002Fuploads\u002Faudio\u002Ftts_bb1bb5848b029fa8_en-US.mp3",{"id":65,"vocabularyWord":66,"displayOrder":75},"019bdbe3-3862-7c29-b375-b6c3efde2c84",{"id":67,"word":68,"frequency":30,"level":9,"language":8,"partsOfSpeech":69,"audio":15},"019bdbe3-385c-73a4-a3ed-55c61f506f9b","will probably",[70],{"id":71,"partOfSpeech":72,"definition":73,"exampleSentences":74,"isPrimary":39,"meaningOrder":40},"019bdbe3-4d5e-7c0f-8862-27be43bd6653","PHRASE","Used to indicate that something is likely to happen or be true.","It will probably rain tomorrow, so take an umbrella.\nShe will probably be late to the meeting.",3,"2026-01-03T16:27:42+00:00","2026-07-14T17:37:50+00:00",[79],"grammar_exercise_questions_modality",[],"\u002Fuploads\u002Fimages\u002Fog_019b84af-a5b2-7987-a9be-d8164de874a7.jpg?v=1784050670",[83,90],{"@id":84,"@type":85,"id":86,"grammarPage":87,"title":88,"instructions":89,"displayOrder":16,"isCompleted":15},"\u002Fapi\u002Fgrammar_exercises\u002F019d3670-9bc5-7857-846b-d42790fad8ad","GrammarExercise","019d3670-9bc5-7857-846b-d42790fad8ad","\u002Fapi\u002Fgrammar_pages\u002F019b84af-a5b2-7987-a9be-d8164de874a7","Predictions About Weather and Travel","Complete the sentences about the weather and travel using 'might', 'may', or 'will probably'.
