Learn how to be polite with this great guide! ◆ “I'm afraid I can't. ” vs “No. ” It can often be difficult to refuse an invitation from a friend. Simply saying “No” would sound impolite. Next time you have to refuse an invitation, you can say, “I'm afraid I can't. ” ◆ “Would you mind…？” vs “Stop it！” If someone does something you don't like, would you like them to stop? To get the good result, rather than shouting “Stop talking on your phone in the cinema！”， ask them politely by saying “Would you mind not using your phone in the cinema, please？” ◆“Can you pass me…？” vs “Give me…” People do not like being told what to do, so it's sometimes difficult to get what you want without causing frustration (懊恼). Replace phrases that sound like commands, such as “Give me the newspaper. ”， with a request like “Can you pass me the newspaper？” ◆“Could you give me five minutes? ” vs “Go away. ” You're really busy at work, but your co­worker needs your help. When you're busy and can't do anything else, just saying “Go away” is certainly not proper. Instead, keep everyone happy by using the phrase “Could you give me five minutes？” 41.
