How can you translate the word "might" into German? Wie heißt das Wort 'might' auf Deutsch? For example: I might go swimming. - You could say "Ich werde vielleicht schwimmen" But apart from using 'might' can you use 'dürfte' or something like that? Thanks!

Sometimes you can also use "dürfte". For example: "That could be interesting" - "Das dürfte interessant sein" - "Das könnte interessant sein". But you can't say "Ich dürfte vielleicht schwimmen gehen".

Ich werde vielleicht schwimmen gehen. oder Ich könnte vielleicht schwimmen gehen.

There is no single equivalent. Ich gehe morgen schwimmen. = I'm going swimming tomorrow. Vielleicht gehe ich morgen schwimmen. = I might go swimming tomorrow. Most of the time you can use "vielleicht" with a "future" expression. (Future is usually done with the present tense in German)
