English for Today by Ganiu Abisoye Bamgbose (Dr GAB)

MAY BE or MAYBE?

May be (as two different words) is a verb phrase used within the predicate position of a sentence:
There may be food at home.

Maybe (as a single word) is an adverb and it is another word for “perhaps”. Maybe GAB is a linguist (perhaps).

Maybe you may be interested in also using both in a sentence to test your understanding of today’s lesson.
