However
You may, however, take more time.
Is this a correct use of "however"?
I thought there had to be a semi colon or at the start of a sentence.

You may, however, take more time. The sentence is fine by me. I have no idea what you mean by your final sentence.

hi guys!!
well i think what he means by his final sentence is to place a semi colon like this:
You may; however, take more time
but i think it is not right..if u leave it like this is fine.

Thanks, soumaya. I didn't think of that. What you suggest would be correct, but unlikely; and would still need a period.
So, both versions would be okay.
A full stop would be more natural than the semi.
You may. However, I suggest you take more time.
