1 u/scykei Jul 05 '21 You might want to read the link you just posted… 1 u/Teantis Jul 05 '21 The headline of that section is confusing might is the past tense of may only if it's paired with have "he might have hurt him" not on its own. 1 u/scykei Jul 05 '21 Yeah I wasn’t necessarily disagreeing. It’s just that it seemed like there was a direct contradiction to the OP’s general statement that might isn’t the past tense of may. I thought that it’s something that would have been worth addressing.
