Unit 37: Can/Could/Would You …? (Requests, Offers, Permission, and Invitations)


A. Asking People to Do Things (Requests)

1. Використання “can” і “could” для прохань

“Can” та “could” використовуються для ввічливих прохань. “Could” звучить трохи формальніше.

Приклади:

  • Can you wait a moment, please?
    (Чи можете ви почекати хвилинку, будь ласка?)
  • Could you tell me how to get to the bus station?
    (Чи не могли б ви підказати, як дістатися до автовокзалу?)

2. Вираз “Do you think you could…?”

Це ще більш ввічлива форма прохання.

Приклад:

  • Do you think you could take me to the airport?
    (Чи не могли б ви підвезти мене до аеропорту?)

B. Asking for Things

1. Використання “Can I have…?” або “Could I have…?”

Ці фрази використовуються, щоб попросити щось.

Приклади:

  • Can I have these postcards, please?
    (Чи можу я взяти ці листівки, будь ласка?)
  • Could we have the menu, please?
    (Чи могли б ми отримати меню, будь ласка?)

2. Використання “May I have…?”

“May I have…?” — більш формальний варіант.

Приклад:

  • May I have these postcards, please?
    (Чи можу я взяти ці листівки, будь ласка?)

C. Asking to Do Things

1. Використання “Can I…?” або “Could I…?”

Ці фрази використовуються, щоб запитати дозволу.

Приклади:

  • (On the phone) Hello, can I speak to Steve, please?
    (Привіт, чи можу я поговорити зі Стівом?)
  • Could I use your phone charger?
    (Чи міг би я скористатися вашим зарядним пристроєм?)

2. Використання “May I…?”

“May I…?” — більш формальний спосіб запитати дозволу.

Приклади:

  • May I ask you a question?
    (Чи можу я поставити вам запитання?)

3. Інші ввічливі форми

  • Do you mind if I…? (Ви не проти, якщо я…?)
  • Is it all right if I…? / Is it OK if I…? (Чи буде нормально, якщо я…?)

Приклад:

    (Ви не проти, якщо я скористаюся вашим зарядним пристроєм?)

D. Offering and Inviting

“Can I…?” використовується для пропозицій допомогти.

Приклади:

  • Can I help you?
    (Чи можу я допомогти вам?)
  • Can I get you some coffee?
    (Чи можу я принести вам каву?)

2. Використання “Would you like…?”

“Would you like…?” використовується для запрошень чи пропозицій. Це ввічливіше, ніж “Do you like…?”

Приклади:

  • Would you like some coffee?
    (Чи хотіли б ви каву?)
  • Would you like to eat with us tonight?
    (Чи хотіли б ви пообідати з нами сьогодні ввечері?)

3. Використання “I’d like…”

“I’d like…” — ввічливий спосіб сказати, чого ви хочете.

Приклади:

  • I’d like some information about hotels, please.
    (Я б хотів(-ла) отримати інформацію про готелі, будь ласка.)
