给别人提建议,英文该如何开口?
1. What about/How about...?
很简单对不对?可是,提建议的时候你肿么想不到呢?省略号的部分直接接名词形式
比如:What about another game?
再玩个别的游戏怎么样?
或者 What about driving to the coast for the weekend?
周末开车去海边玩怎么样?
2. Why not...?
有些选择想必对方还没试过,可是为什么不试试呢?表达这样的情绪,你就可以用Why not...?
例如:If you don't want to go, why not just say so?
如果你不想走,干嘛不直接说呢?
3. You might want to...
Might的语气尤为委婉,听起来特别有礼貌。
例如:You might try calling the help desk.
或许你可以给咨询台打电话问问。
4. Perhaps/Maybe you should/could...
Perhaps/Maybe用在这里显得礼貌,与could相比,should更像提建议,could则有一种“某种做法是可能的”意味。
例句:Perhaps you should talk to your teacher.
或许你该和老师谈谈。
5. If I were you, I would...
觉得上面的句子都太简单,逼格不够高?好吧,来个难度大点儿的。这个句型运用了虚拟语气,表示换位思考后,我认为该怎样做。
例句:If I were you, I would apologize to him.
如果我是你,我会跟他道歉的。
