WHEN YOU NEED OR WANT SOMETHING, YOU CAN
REQUESTS WITH “TO HAVE” WHEN YOU NEED OR WANT SOMETHING, YOU CAN
USE THE MODAL VERBS “CAN”, “COULD” OR “MAY” FOLLOWED BY THE VERB “TO HAVE”. REMEMBER THAT WE USE “CAN” IN INFORMAL SITUATIONS, SUCH AS WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY. “COULD” AND “MAY” ARE USED IN MORE FORMAL SITUATIONS, WITH YOUR BOSS OR DURING A MEETING.
EXAMPLES:
“CAN I HAVE SOME MORE CHICKEN, MOM?”
“CAN I HAVE TWO COKE’S AND A BURGER, PLEASE?”
“COULD I HAVE SOME MORE COFFEE?”
“COULD I HAVE THE WINE, PLEASE?”
“MAY I HAVE THE BILL, PLEASE?”
