Can I use your phone to make a call?

Can I have a sandwich?

Can I come in?

Okay…

enough with “ Can I”

let’s make our English

more advanced using these alternatives.

We usually use Can I to ask for permission.

Here are some advanced ways to ask for permission…

Number 1

Allow

For example

you wanna ask a father

to let you marry his daughter.

you say:

Allow me to marry your daughter

or will you allow me to marry your daughter?

This is a formal and polite way

to ask for a permission.

Number 2

Permit

This one is formal.

Let’s say you wanna go to a nature reserve

and you need a permission from the government.

You say Please permit me to visit the nature reserve

and they will give you a permit to visit it.

Number 3

let

This one is a little forceful and persuasive

it can be used for both

formal and informal situations.

for example

let’s say you wanna help a lady and be a gentleman.

So you open the door for her and say:

Please let me open the door for you…

OOOO WHAT A GENTLEMAN…

Number 4

Enable

Another way to ask for permission is to say

enable me…

Will you enable me to open my own business?

A formal way to ask for a permission.

Number 5

Consent

Another cool and advanced way

to ask for a formal permission.

Do you remember the first example?

Let’s say it with this word…

Do I have your consent to marry your daughter?

will you consent me to marry your daughter?

Number 6

go ahead

This one is energetic and amazing

Somehow idiomatic and informal…

let’s say you wanna go out

and you need to ask your father for permission…

you say:

Do I have the go ahead to go out?

Cool right?

And last but certainly not least

Number 7

Greenlight

Another fun way to ask for a permission

is to ask for a green light…

like:

Do I have the green light to start a business?

This one is considered informal.

Okay, ladies and gents

that’s it for today.

Now it’s your turn…
