~てもいい
Usage:

Te Form of Verb + もいい
Meaning:
「~てもいい」means “May I…”, “Can I…”, “You can…”, “You may…”, “It’s okay to…”. Note: ①「~てもいい」 is used to ask for permission or to express that it is okay to do something. ②「~てもかまわない・~てもかまいません」 is a more formal way to say 「~てもいい」. ③よ is used primarily at the very end of sentences. It can be used with any kind of sentence, causal or polite. When a sentence ends with よ, it causes the sentence to sound more emphatic. |
Examples:
話変えてもいい? Is it okay if we change the subject? また来てもいい? May I come again? 犬を飼ってもいい? Can I get a dog? これ食べてもいい? May I eat this? 理由聞いてもいい? May I ask why? もう帰ってもいいですよ。 You can go home now. ここに駐車してもいいですよ。 You may park here. 夕食の後テレビを見てもいいですよ。 You can watch TV after supper. カバンはここに置いていってもかまわない。 You may leave your bag here. ここでたばこを吸ってもかまいません。 You can smoke here. |
