Hi Chris Kim~

"Maybe" has many forms of similar words or meanings in Arabic, such in English you have "Perhaps". I will explain it in both Classic and Colloquial Arabic ^^

In Classic:
Maybe=
ربما
Rob-bama

-Is she coming? هل هي قادمة‏?‏
-Maybe.‏ ربما

قد
Qud or kud (u as in Bug)
But Qud means "May more than Maybe"

She may come or may not.
قد تأتي و قد لا تأتي.

In Colloquial:
Maybe=
Mom-ken ممكن
Yem-ken يمكن
Yom-ken يمكن

They all mean the same meaning but the diffrence is in the Accent.

-Do you think that i did it well? -Maybe.

Btw, rob-bama match perhaps more than maybe, and momken match maybe.

Hope it helps ^^
