Communication Briefings - Can or may?
Many people use them interchangeably; others favor "can" over "may" in an effort to sound less stilted or formal. But do "can" and "may" really mean the same thing? No.
"Can" means physically able to. Example: "Can you lift 20 pounds?" In contrast, "may" means permitted to. Example: "May I stop by your office?"
