06:51	problem . Let's practice making more requests . Um Let's
07:00	see what else we can ask . I have some
07:02	suggestions . I'm going to tell you a sentence of
07:06	what you want or what you need and you can
07:09	ask me for something . Use a nice request with
07:12	can . So for example you want to use my
07:15	pen ? You ask jennifer can I use your pen
07:18	? Can I or can I please write if you
07:23	use can . It's already nice americans . Don't always
07:27	say please . Sometimes we do . Sometimes we don't
07:31	can I use your pen ? Can I please please
07:34	use your pen ? We don't always say please .
07:38	All right , so please uh uh you can can
07:44	I use your pen please ? I think it sounds
07:47	almost a little more polite . Maybe a little more
07:50	formal . If I say can I use your pen
07:52	please ? But to a friend I wouldn't even say
07:56	please to a friend . Can I use your pen
07:59	? I don't say please to a friend but I'm
08:03	asking I'm not going to say give me your pen
08:06	. I make it a question and that's nice and
08:10	my voice makes it nice . I don't always say
08:13	please to a friend , can I use your mirror
08:16	? Right , can I please use your mirror please
08:20	? This extra nice . But two friends we don't
08:23	always use please . I think other cultures might use
08:27	please more than you do . Okay , flavia you
08:32	want to call me tonight ? Mm . So focus
08:37	on the verb . You want to call me tonight
08:42	? Can I go you sure ? Yeah . You
