Jeruk Limau Street II/A16
Bandung
4th of July 2014
Dear Hana,
Thank you for your kind invitation to dinner on your celebrating party.
Unfortunately, my plans have changed somewhat, and Im leaving Bandung
earlier than I have expected in order to attend a family gathering in Perth.
Im sorry to miss it, but perhaps I could call you next time I am in
Bandung, and we could arrange to meet.
Yours sincerely,
Dul
CULTURAL AWARENESS
There are many ways to offer to do something. The thing you should remember well
when you do it is the context. Is it a formal or informal situation?
The expressions that you will learn later on work in both formal and informal
situations. To soften the offers, we can use perhaps and maybe with modal could and
should, as well I think.
For examples:
Maybe we could go together to the hospital.
Perhaps we should ask our classmates.
I think we should renovate the buildings as soon as possible.

Furthermore, we may use could rather than should in a formal situation, because you
will sound as if youre proposing a good idea, rather than giving advice.
When someone offers to do something in a context, we should respond accordingly.
Informal : Why dont we go to the park? The weathers too nice to waste just being at
home.
Respond: Yeah, thats a great idea. Lets go.
Formal : Perhaps we could try another way to solve this problem?
Respond: Yes, of course. I was thinking that we should leave this part, but change that
one.
A. Offering to do something
To offer someone to do something, we can use some of the following expressions.
How about (or what about) + V-ing/noun ?
How about (or what about) going to the cinema?
Why dont + we/you + v (infinitive) ?
Why dont you leave a message?
Why not + v (infinitive) .?
Why not do this again later? We need a break.
We could/should + v (infinitive) .
We could go to the cinema instead of just staying in .
We should celebrate your college admission.
Shall we + v (infinitive) ?
Shall we go before its raining?
Lets + v .
Its raining cats and dogs. Lets just stay in and watch some DVDs.
B. Responding to an offer to do something

Accepting an offer
Yes/yeah, great/fine/OK/thats a good
idea/that sounds good.
Sure, if you like.
Yes, I dont mind.
Lets !
Refusing an offer
I think Id rather go to .
C. Offering an Invitation
When you want to offer an invitation to
someone, you have to check his/her
availability first before extending an invitation
by asking them some questions like Are you
free next Sunday? or Are you busy on ?.
The following expressions on the table are
some examples to offer an invitation in both
formal and informal situations.
Formal
Informal
Id like you to come to

dinner.
Id like to ask you to come to
my housewarming party.
Would you like to go to the
theatre with me on Saturday
evening?
I wondered/was wondering
if youd like to come to my
birthday party on Sunday.
I would very much like it if
you could come along.
Do you fancy a walk?

Do you fancy jogging in the
park with me?
Are you up for a night out?
Are you out for going out
tonight?
Do you feel like a chess

game?
Do you feel like going to the
cinema?
When you fancy something, it means that

you want to do it right now. Would you like
means Do you want to? but is more polite. I
wonder/was wondering is also a more polite
way of inviting someone.

Oh, Id love that. What time?
Thatd be fun.

OK/Sure/Great/All right.
When declining an invitation, we should

give a reason why we cant accept it.
We may use the word invite as a noun in
place of invitation. However, it is very
informal.
Ive got to is also an informal expression,
which is the same as I have to.
I cant make it is something you say
when you cannot come to an event.

good idea
