Contoh Giving Suggestion (memberikan saran)

Thursday, December 27, 2012
Giving Suggestion (memberikan saran) dengan menggunakan "Could"

Could dapat digunakan untuk memberikan saran kepada orang lain.

Contoh Kasus:
What should we do tomorrow?

Contoh saran yang dapat diberikan:


We could go on a picnic.
We could go to Nicole's party.

Could dapat juga digunakan untuk memberikan tawaran atau kemungkinan


kepada orang lain.

Contoh kasus:
I'm having trouble in math class

Contoh saran yang dapat diberikan:


You could talk to your teacher.

You could ask Michelle to help you with your math lessons. Or I could try to help you.

Giving Suggestion (memberikan saran) dengan menggunakan "Lets,


Why Dont, Shall I/ We"

Let's berasal dari kata let us, yang berarti: "I have a suggestion for us"/ "Saya
punya suatu saran untuk kita". Penggunaan Let's selalu diikuti dengan kata kerja
bentuk pertama (VERB 1).

Rumus pada kalimat negatif: Let's + NOT + VERB 1

Contoh:
Let's go to a movie.
Let's not go to a movie. Let's stay home instead.

Why don't adalah suatu ungkapan yang paling utama dalam bahasa Inggris
untuk memberikan saran dengan ramah.

Contoh:
Why don't we go to a movie?
(Pada konteks kalimat diatas, "Why don't we go = Let's go")

Why don't you come around seven


(Pada konteks kalimat diatas, artinya: Saya menyarankan kamu untuk datang sekitar
pukul 7)

Ketika shall digunakan dengan Subjek "I" atau "We" dalam suatu kata tanya,
biasanya si pembicara sedang memberikan saran dan bertanya kepada orang
lain apakah mereka setuju dengan saran yang diberikan.

Terkadang "shall we?" digunakan pada question tag setelah kata let's. secara
tidak formal, menggunakan kata "okay"? sebagai tag question nya. untuk lebih
jelasnya, silahkan perhatikan contoh kalimat dibawah ini.

Contoh:
Shall I open the window ? Is that okay with
you?
Shall we leave at two? Is that okay?
Let's go, Shall we?
Let's go, okay?

Semoga artikel ini bisa dipahami dan membantu untuk belajar bahasa inggris,
jika bermanfaat mohon di share. Mohon maaf jika ada kesalahan dalam
pengetikan. Dan untuk segala jenis pertanyaan, saran, dan kritik bisa
dicantumkan pada kolom komentar. Terima kasih.
