About this episode

In English, we use the word "please" to make requests and orders more polite – but have you ever considered where exactly to put the word "please" in your sentence?

In today's lesson I'll show you several correct places to put the word "please" as well as a couple that sound unnatural, which you should avoid.

"Please" is a word we use every day, so we want to use it correctly. It's really important to know the most common words and phrases so that you can be more confident speaking English in daily life.

That's why I created the Everyday English Speaking Course, to help you know exactly what to say in lots of different situations! There are actually two levels of the course - so you can make progress and become a more advanced English speaker day by day.
