GIVING INSTRUCTIONS

GIVING INSTRUCTIONS

She is a stewardess, right?? 

You may meet 'em everytime you are in flight. Do you know their job...? 

Yeah you're right!

Their job is to "give instructions" to all the passengers, the instructions is about the safety passengers ;)

More example ..

(Someone is knocking the door)

Mom : There’s someone outside, open the door please..

Me : Yes Mom..

My mom asked me to open the door. It’s mean my mom gave me an instructions.

Giving Instructions is competence for to do command or request from one people to another people

v  

      How to give instructions:

1.      Use the imperative form

We use the imperative form to give orders, warnings, and advice

Example

-     Be quiet! (order)

-     Take care! (order)

-     Listen to me carefully! (order)

-     don’t come here! (warning/prohibition)

-     don’t make a noise (warning/prohibition)

-     don’t walk along here! (warning/prohibition)

Because it can sound rude (especially if you are talking to an adult), we ‘soften’ the imperative form with “Let’s” or “Please”

-          Let’s go now

-          Please listen what I’m saying

2.       Use a modal verb to turn the order into a request (Could, can, will, would)

-          Could you make some tea?

-          Can you come here please?

-          Will you shut the door please?

-          Would you wait me for just a minutes?

3.      Use an introductory phrase to soften the order

-          Would you mind possibly … (+ing) (most indirect)

-          I was hoping you could … (+infinitive without to)

-          Do you think you could … (+infinitive without to)

-          I’d like you to …

-          I want you to …

4.      Use a sequencing words

(first, second, after that, next, the last step is, then, finish)


After learning about giving instructions, let's be a polite person in giving instructions to the other people, okay?
Don't be a rude person in sayin sumthin ;)
