このコンテンツについて
Today, let’s look at a really common phrase you’ll hear in everyday English - “Do me a favor.”
We use do me a favor when we want to ask someone to do something for us. It’s usually for a small, everyday request, and it sounds more friendly than directly asking someone to do something.
- One common pattern is: Do me a favor and, plus a verb. You can say things like, “Do me a favor and close the window.” OR “Do me a favor and turn down the TV a little.”
- We also use Do me a favor followed by a sentence. Like, “Do me a favor. Hand me that dictionary over there.” OR “Do me a favor, don’t tell anyone what we just talked about.
- You can also use Do me a favor when you’re annoyed with someone. Like, Do me a favor and talk more quietly. OR Do me a favor. Stop smoking in this restaurant.
Using “do me a favor” is a common, indirect way to soften your request. Even when you’re annoyed. So do me a favor and try using this phrase in one of your English conversations this week, ok?
