In het Engels zijn er naast can nog drie manieren om te zeggen dat iets mag: may, might, to be allowed to.

May / might / to be allowed to

• May + hele werkwoord (toegestaan; alleen gebruikt in tegenwoordige tijd)

You may go now.

• Might + hele werkwoord (toegestaan; formeel)

Might I ask the Minister a question?

• To be allowed to + hele werkwoord (toegestaan; gebruikt in alle tijden en altijd in plaats van may en can in alle andere tijden dan de tegenwoordige tijd)

Fill in the correct from of may / might / to be allowed to:

Both / either / neither

• Je gebruikt both, either, neither als je wilt verwijzen naar twee personen of dingen.

Both (beide): I can't choose, I like them both.
Either (een van beide): Who did this? – It must be either of them.
