use of potential mood in sentence

The potential mood has several suffixes depending on the pronoun :

I : - ऊँ
We : - एँ
You : - एँ
He : - ए
She : - ए
They : - एँ

An example :
She may work – वह काम करे

The potential mood is formed a lot like the future tense, except that the ending गा , गी , and गे is omitted. So instead of करूंगा it will be करूँ .

The negative can also be used in the potential mood :
You may not cry – आप मत रोएँ

The potential mood can be turned into the interrogative mood by adding क्या to the beginning of the sentence :
May I go? – क्या मैं जाऊँ ?

But using “can” is a bit different from the potential mood :
They can fall – वे गिर सकते हैं
They may fall (potential mood) – वे गिरें..
