EXPRESSIONS WITH ‘MAY’ (AS THE CASE MAY BE)

Happy Monday and good morning, everyone! 

This week we will begin the 2019 Alphabet Game on Wednesday. So for Monday and Tuesday, we will look at two expressions with the modal verb May.

Today's expression is: AS THE CASE MAY BE. 

Definition: An expression used when two things are possibly true, depending on the situation. 

Example 1: It's important to consider a potential new employee's experience (or lack of experience, as the case may be). 

Example 2: You shouldn't stand here looking at everyone while they're working (or talking, as the case may be). 

That's it for today. Thank you for reading!
