Express Yourself Asking for something

Asking for something

Whether you are in shops or restaurants or in somebody's home, you can use polite questions to get what you want:

Could I have a glass of water, please?

Do you have any decaffeinated coffee?

I'd like tea with sugar, please.

I'll have the pasta with salad, please.

Responses:

Certainly.

I'm sorry, we don't have any left.

Yes, of course. Here you are/​go.
