Be careful here! Because they are asking if you "mind" (ប្រកាន់ទេ), you actually have to say "No" to help them! The best answer is: "No, not at all!" or "No, of course not!" 🤝
Do I say "I suggest to go" or "I suggest going"?
Excellent question! The verb "suggest" is always followed by an -ing verb or a clause. So you must say: "I suggest going" OR "I suggest that we go". Never use "to go" after suggest! 📝
What is the difference between "Can you help me?" and "Could you help me?"
Both are polite requests, but "Could you" is slightly softer and more polite. It is a great choice when asking a manager or a customer for help! 🌟
If someone asks "Would you mind helping me?", how do I say yes?
