30 -may not-
Nota d'usomay not, a meno che indichi un divieto (come ad esempio nella frase Students may not use cellphones in class, gli studenti non possono usare i cellulari in classe), significa è possibile che non, può darsi che non. George may not like the idea vuole dire pertanto è possibile che George non gradisca l'idea (o può darsi che George non gradisca l'idea; George potrebbe non gradire l'idea) e non George non può gradire l'idea; Without extra financial support, the company may not survive significa senza ulteriori aiuti finanziari, è possibile che l'azienda non sopravviva (o l'azienda potrebbe non sopravvivere) e non senza ulteriori aiuti finanziari, l'azienda non può sopravvivere. Lo stesso vale per il passato may not have + participio passato: He may not have seen us, può darsi che non ci abbia visto (non non può averci visto). -

39 -to dislike o not to like?-
Nota d'usoIl verbo to dislike nel senso di “non piacere” non viene usato frequentemente nell'inglese di tutti i giorni. In questo caso, si preferisce ricorrere alla forma negativa del verbo to like: I don't like coconut, non mi piace il cocco (non I dislike coconut). To dislike viene usato in contesti più formali e spesso esprime un sentimento più forte: She dislikes him, lo detesta. Come sostantivo, dislike è usato in locuzioni come: to take a dislike to sb./st. (o to have a dislike for sb./st.), prendere in antipatia; oltre che nella comune collocazione likes and dislikes, ciò che piace e non piace. -
