| Amatuka | Note different verb form used before まい. | | Amatuka | Hmm, not completely sure of the translation on this one ... | | Miki | そうです。日本語があまい!How about this?
君から、もし構わなければ、この話を先生に相談してくれまいか? | | Miki | Did you pick up the translation from Google? Searched by よろしく相談。The sentence is from a letter written in 1916. The Japanese is old.
…、この話を先生に相談していただけませんか?or 相談していただけないものか? would be modern expression. | | bamboo4 | まいか or ないか is normally used by a senior person to address his junior. It is not a honorrific.頂けませんか would be the polite form.頂けないものか would be the mordern version of まいか.
| | Yuri | I was taught that this まいか form is also used to express some confusion : whether...or not -- don't know yet.
...行こうか行くまいか考えている。
..still considering whether going or not. | | paulblay | Same as maika, I think there should not be a separate entry for mai_ka_-2, it should be here under the heading of mai-2. | | |
