In this lesson, I'm going to talk about formal request patterns.

These air a few different patterns that you can use when you're making a formal request.

So these air great for business emails and other situations where you need to politely ask for something.

I'm going to introduce the patterns, and then I'm going to share a couple of examples as well.

These are not the Onley patterns you can use there just a few ideas to help you get started.

Okay, 1st 1 let's begin with the 1st 1 You'll see some of these patterns today will use the word would at the beginning.

Remember, we can use wood as a common word to begin a request.

Another thing you'll see in many of these examples is the word two before kind of the extra information portion.

This is a great hint that we should follow this part with some kind of verb.

So two plus the infinitive form of overt.

So the 1st 1 I've included be so kind as to do something.

So this is making a request and this part be so kind as to shows us that thes speaker is asking for the kindness of the listener or the reader in doing this action, which we're about to describe.

Would you be so kind as to send me the files?

As I said, we need to follow this, too, with the infinitive form of the verb Send and send me the files, finishes the phrase.

So would you be so kind as to send me the files means please send me the files, but it's a more formal sounding request.

You're saying it would be really nice of you if you would send me the files.

It just means Please send me the files, but it sounds more polite.

Okay, let's look at another one similar again.

This one begins with wood and ends with two in the introductory part of this pattern.

However, here we have a possible would it be possible to this sentence or this pattern.

But would it be possible to sounds much more formal than can you or in some cases, can I?

Would it be possible to discuss this later?

We have this to here, which shows us we should use the infinitive form of the for the regular form of liver to discuss this later.

This part would it be possible to means can.

So, in other words, can we discuss this later?

That's what this request is, but it sounds more formal.

If you're using this in speech, we're connecting these sounds.

Okay, so this is a good one to use for can situations?

If you would use can in a regular request, you could try it.

Would it be possible to in a formal request.

Okay, let's go along to the next 1 May we ask you to May we ask you to?

This is a formal way of saying Please, please, please do this thing.

So again, we're ending the pattern with two.

May we ask you so you know that we use May to ask for permission to do something, but we're also using Ask So really, this combination make a very soft request here.

I'm using we this we could mean your group or your company or your department.

Perhaps so may we ask you to Is kind of making yourself sound quite humble, So you're kind of lowering yourself and making a request from the other person.

But again, this just means Please, please.

We're just using a more formal expression again.

We're going to need to use the infinitive form here because we see two at the end of this introductory section.

May we ask you to submit the application by tomorrow?

So again to our infinitive form And here.

If you're using, please, you could just say please submit the application by tomorrow period.

Not a question mark here because we're being formal and polite.

We say, may we ask you to submit the application by tomorrow?

It's like you're asking permission to ask for something from someone if that makes it so.

It's kind of a very soft expression, but, um, we're phrasing this as a question here again, This just means please submit the application by tomorrow, Okay, on to the next one.

So here we see, would do you think you would be able to This means that in the future you're asking about someone's future ability, something that someone could do or would be able to do in the future.

So do you think you would be able to verb phrase here?

This is maybe kind of softening it instead of would you be able to its Do you think you would be able to here as well A pronunciation point.

Do you think you'd be able to Do you think you'd be able to in speech in writing we can use the regular form the non reduced, the non contracted for Let's look at an example of how to use this.

Do you think you would be ableto have it ready by tomorrow?

If we want to make this really, really simple?

Do you think you would be able to have it ready by tomorrow?

It's just a very formal way of saying that.

Do you think he would be able to have it ready by tomorrow?

It's like giving the other person a chance to say no.

But it means can you can you have it ready by tomorrow?
