Dear Late Word
What is the difference between ‘sound’ and ‘voice’?

Voice is sound – vibration. For a pure, clear voice, the vocal cords come together and vibrate, allowing for air to leave the voice and create a pure tone. That pure tone we describe in terms of pitch and volume. we use it mainly to carry speech over a distance and we use it for emotion.
Sound is any voice is particular.
voice is sound made by beings using the vocal folds
Sound refers to source of voice. Voice is the recognition of the sound.
A sound has over an area.
A voice hasn’t over an area.

Examples:
I heared A sound …
I ‘m hearing Late word’s voice .

What is the difference between “may” or “might”?
Using ‘may’ or ‘might’ can be a little confusing for an English learner – especially if you look too hard to find any difference in usage between the two!
May’ and ‘might’ are almost always interchangeable – that is, you can convey exactly the same meaning using either one. Both express a possibility of some action taking place. For example:
• It may rain this afternoon.
• It might rain this afternoon.
• Salwa may miss the bus if he doesn’t hurry.
• Salwa might miss the bus if he doesn’t hurry.

--
Most grammar will tell you that ‘might’ suggests a somewhat lower probability or possibility than ‘may‘ but this is a really fine distinction and you won’t be making any grammatical errors nor confusing your meaning if you use either one.
Now, when you are using ‘might‘ as the past tense of the auxiliary ‘may‘ then you stick with ‘might’ in the sentence:
• He might have caught his train if he had left work on time.

Don’t forget that ‘may‘ can also be used in interrogative sentences when you are asking permission to do something. It is a common ‘polite’ form. For example:
• May I use your telephone?
• May I GO?
