Hi Adrian, The sentences should look like this: May I ask you a favor? Could I ask you a favor? Both of these mean the exact same thing. But notice that I changed the spelling of "aks" to ask.

"May I ask" tends to sound more polite/formal than "Could I ask"... but as Erik said, they mean the same thing.
