In English culture, if you want to give advice to someone else, there are some ways that you must know. Are you curious it? Let's learn them together.
Below are the example of giving advice and responses.
For the more details, pay attention to the following dialog.
Study the dialog below and have a look at the italic words.
Farid : Look at these articles, more drug users were caught.
Sela : Yeah, I think the number of drug users is increasing.
Farid : Yeah, it's so sad. We have to be careful not to get plunged into using drugs. How do you think we can stop or at least decrease the number of drug users?
Sela : Well, I think beside educating everyone with the information of what drugs are and what they can do to our body, we should also control the drug traffic more strictly.
Note :
1. In giving advice, we commonly use : sould/ought to + Verb 1, example :
a. You should go to the dentist.
b. You ought to go to the dentist.
c. I think you ought to try to do that.
2. We can also use : had better + Verb 1, example :
a. You'd better go now.
b. I think you'd better go now.
3. Must, have to basically have the same meaning. They express the idea that something is necessary.
a. Don't / doesn't have to express the idea that something is not necessary.
b. Must not / mustn't express prohibition.
c. How about taking a rest here yes, good idea.
d. What about going out for a walk now, you can't do that.
e.Why don't you repair the car ?
