Formulating Questions
- On my polite-o-meter, the two sentences score very close:
- "Could you help me, please?",
- "Could you please help me?".
- The former sounds more formal. Use whichever one you want and you’ll be more polite than most people.
- Could you tell me or can you tell me?
Correct Usage of "To"
- "To" is a preposition with several meanings, including “toward” and “until.”
- "Too" is an adverb that can mean “excessively” or “also.”
- Just to be clear: two is pronounced the same as "to" and "too", but it can’t be used instead of either of them because it’s a number.
