#英語學習#會話英語:請求幫忙。無論用哪種語言請求別人幫忙都不是件容易事,但在英語中有一些方法可以讓請求變得更容易、更有禮貌。一個常見的策略是在提出具體請求之前,先提出一個一般性的問題。例如,你可以從詢問 “Could you do me a favor?”(你能幫我一個忙嗎?)開始。用一種禮貌而溫和的方式來開啟你的請求,這有助於對方在你提出具體要求之前感覺更自在。
同時,使用“Please”(請)和“Thank you”(謝謝)表示禮貌和感謝也很重要。例如,“Could you please…?”(能請您……嗎?)會讓你的請求聽起來更有禮貌。
如果對方願意幫忙或答應你的請求,他們可能會說:“Of course! What is it?”(當然可以!怎麼啦?),“I’d be happy to help.”(我很樂意幫忙。)或者“It’s my pleasure.”(樂意效勞。)

#English Study# Conversational English: Asking for a favor. Asking for favors can be difficult in any language, but there are ways to make it easier and more polite in English. One common strategy is to start with a general question before getting into the specific favor. For example, you can begin by asking: “Could you do me a favor?” This is a polite and gentle way to start your request, which helps the other person feel more comfortable before you go into the details.
It’s also important to use "Please" and "Thank you" to show appreciation and politeness. For example, “Could you please…?” makes your request sound more respectful. If the person is willing to help or grant your request, they might say:
-
“Of course! What is it?”
-
“I’d be happy to help.”
-
“It’s my pleasure.”
