Order / Sugestion



English Expressions: Asking & Giving Suggestion (Meminta dan memberi saran) adalah salah satu ungkapan bahasa Inggris sehari-hari yang perlu diketahui oleh semua kalangan. Tidak hanya oleh para siswa tingkat elementary dan intermediate saja, tingkat advance pun harusnya sudah bisa menguasai materi percakapan ini.


Dalam kehidupan sehari-hari, seringkali kita mendapatkan berbagai masalah yang mungkin tidak bisa kita selesaikan sendiri. Terkadang kita membutuhkan saran orang lain agar masalah yang sedang kita hadapi bisa menemukan solusi yang tepat. Lalu bagaimanakah meminta saran dalam bahasa Inggris? Serta bagaimana memberikan saran tersebut? Oke kita langsung menuju dialog di bawah ini agar lebih mudah : 

Anton : I have a serious problem today. I have just lost my driver license.
Shally : Don't be so sad my friend, let us search it around the park.
Anton : I have looked for it for hours but I do not find it, do you have some ideas?
Shally : You had better tell the securities to announce it to other students.
Anton : Yeah, that sounds good. I do hope it helps.
