PREDICTIONS will, may, might,

We use will, may and might to talk about predictions based on opinions: something that we believe or calculate.

‘will definitely/certainly’ We use this phrase when we are sure something will happen. Examples: We will definitely go out on Friday night. There definitely won’t be any disagreement. It certainly won’t rain today.

‘will probably’ This phrase is used when we are fairly sure (perhaps 75% sure) something will happen. Examples: We will probably  go to the movies tonight. I probably won’t be late tomorrow.

‘may / might’ These verbs are used to say that something could happen / that it’s possible something will happen. Examples: We might go out on Friday night. I may not come to the class tomorrow.
