Hi folks, my main point was that maybe is more commonly used than perhaps.

Again, apologies, " who " was supposed to be you. My error.

.perhaps you might of heard of him".

The question is if this should be "you might of heard of him" or "you might heard of him"?

"you might of heard of him" is correct.

You could also say, " You may have heard of him ."

" Maybe you've heard of him. "

Hi Bill,

Ouch!

[Torsten]

I think saying or writing 'you might of' instead of 'you might have' is common mistake made by native speakers of American English.

TOEIC listening, question-response: Could I speak to Marcy Gillman please?

[Kitosdad]

Ouch, but Torsten, I'm not American. Let's split hairs and say,

" You've heard of him, perhaps .?

:lol: :lol: :lol:
