can i share my screen

The phrase 'Can I share my screen?' is a polite and common request made during virtual meetings or presentations to display one's screen to others.

It is used in online meetings, webinars, or video conferences when someone wants to show their screen to others for demonstration or explanation.

Examples:

  • - During the meeting, John asked, 'Can I share my screen to show the data?'
  • - If you need to present your work, just ask, 'Can I share my screen?'

Alternatives:

  • May I present my screen?
  • Is it okay if I show my screen?
  • Could I display my screen?
  • Would you mind if I share my screen?
  • Am I allowed to share my screen?
These two phrases are not directly comparable as they serve different purposes. 'Ok' is a simple acknowledgment or agreement, while 'Can I share my screen?' is a request to share one's screen during a virtual meeting or presentation.
