May not意思

"May not" is a modal verb phrase that is used to express possibility or permission in the negative. It is formed by combining the modal verb "may" with the negative particle "not." Here are some examples of how "may not" is used:

  1. Possibility (negative) - "It may not rain tomorrow." (It might not rain tomorrow.)
  2. Permission (denial) - "You may not leave the room until you finish your homework." (You are not allowed to leave the room until you finish your homework.)
  3. Suggestion (negative) - "You may not want to go out in this weather." (It's not a good idea to go out in this weather.)

In each case, "may not" suggests that something is not likely to happen or is not allowed to happen.
