Question

may be和maybe的区别

Answer 1

maybe是副词，意思是“也许、可能”，相当于perhaps，常位于句首。
Maybe she’ll come this afternoon. 她可能今天下午来。
Maybe you put the letter in your pockets. 大概你把信放在衣袋里了。

may be，意为“也许是、可能是”。
I can’t find my watch. It may be in your pocket.
我找不到我的手表了，它可能在你的口袋里。
He may be a soldier. 他可能是军人。

maybe和may be可相互转换。
He may be in the office.
= Maybe he is in the office. 他或许在办公室。

You may be right.
= Maybe you are right. 你或许是对的。
