MAY OR MIGHT

EXPLANATION
May / might
may
We can use 'may' to ask for permission. However this is rather formal and not used very often in modern spoken English
  • May I borrow your pen?
  • May we think about it?
  • May I go now?
We use 'may' to suggest something is possible
  • It may rain later today.
  • I may not have time to do it today.
  • Pete may come with us
might
We use 'might' to suggest a small possibility of something. Often we read that 'might' suggests a smaller possibility that 'may', there is in fact little difference and 'might is more usual than 'may' in spoken English.
  • She might be at home by now but it's not sure at all.
  • It might rain this afternoon.
  • I might not have time to go to the shops for you.
  • I might not go.
For the past, we use 'might have'.
  • He might have tried to call while I was out.
  • I might have dropped it in the street.

THIS IS THE HISTORY OF WALTER LOEBNER


Prison garb that Walter Loebner, born 27 January, 1903 in Hermanshuette, Czechoslovakia, received in Auschwitz.
Sewn on the shirt are the number 70096 and a Star of David comprised of two triangles, one red and one yellow, signifying a Jewish prisoner.
Until the German annexation of the Sudetenland in 1938, Walter Loebner was a surgeon in Marienbad. He never bothered to hide his anti-fascist views, and was therefore arrested before war broke out, in April 1939. He was imprisoned in Prague, and later sent to the Sachsenhausen camp near Berlin. In October 1942, he was transferred to Auschwitz. At first, he was assigned to forced labor, but from April 1943 he started working as a prisoner-doctor in the hospital block and in the camps annexed to the main camp at Auschwitz.
On 18 January, 1945 he was sent together with the rest of the prisoners of Auschwitz-Birkenau on a death march that lasted for 3 weeks, until they arrived at the Gross-Rosen camp in west Poland. After 4 days, they were taken by train to the Dora-Mittelbau camp in Germany, and in April, he was sent to the labor camp in Oranienburg, close to Berlin. He escaped on 21 April, and stayed in the forest for about a week, until he was liberated by the Red Army.
After the liberation he returned to practicing medicine, and for a short time was director of the hospital in Kremen, near Oranienburg. In July 1945, he went back to Prague where he met his future wife, Lily, whom he had known before the war. In 1948, they immigrated to Israel with their daughters Aya and Dana.

concentration camp and another that life in a very big house with a father that works on the
concentartion camp.Is so interesting to read how the jew life there dont knowing were is he  and
anything about the Holocaust and how they became he and the other boy became friends.


I am Silvia and i had also read The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.
I think the book is very interesting because it tells us how two children live the Holocaust without knowing were they are.
