A. Giving Advice
Giving Advice is any kind of suggestion regarding a possible course of
action for another person There are lots of different ways to give advice in
English. We are going to look at three:
1. Imperatives
An imperative is a command or an order. To form an imperative, you use
the bare infinitive form of the verb without a subject – it should be clear to
the person you are speaking to that the imperative is about them.
For example:
- Wear warm clothes when you visit the UK.
- Don’t be afraid to talk to people.
2. Using modal verbs
There are three useful words/phrases we use to give advice. These are
called modals.
If you think something is a good idea, you can use the word: should
If you think something is a bad idea, you can use the word: shouldn’t
For example:
- You should eat fruit and vegetables every day to stay healthy.
- You shouldn’t eat too much spicy food.
3. Why don’t you.
Another way to give advice is to use the question form ‘why don’t
you…?’ This is a nice way of making a suggestion – if you are not sure
about the advice, you can use this form.
For example:
- Why don’t you take an English course before you go to the UK?
- Why don’t you give her a chocholate?Asking for advice:
There are several different structures that you can use when giving advice :
a. Should
This is probably the most common of the structures for giving advice.
After should, and its negative - shouldn't - we use the base form of the
infinitive of the verb:
You should wise up
 We shouldn’t cheat
It is common to use 'I think' and 'I don’t think' with should:
I think you should put the answers back
She doesn't think they should use them
b. Had better
This structure is common in spoken English and it is usually used in the
contracted form. After had better, and its negative - had better not, we use
the base form of the infinitive of the verb
-You'd better return the answers to the lecturer
-You'd better not tell anyone that you found them
c. Ought
This is the most formal of the structures used for giving advice, and so it
isn't so common.
After ought, and its negative - ought not (oughtn't), we use the full
infinitive of the verb:
- You ought to contact the police
- You ought not to cheat in exams
d. If I were you
This version of the second conditional is often used when giving advice,
especially in spoken English. Note the use of were with I in the first clause.
In the second clause, we use would - contracted to d - and wouldn’t.

B. Unsenful Expression
 To do something.
I think you’d better.
If I were you, I’d.
It would probably be a good idea.
Take my advice and.
I advice you to.
How about.
 Not to do something
I don’t think you should.
 I would not .,If I were you.
You’d better not.

 Expression of Giving Advice

I would like you to take this medicine three times a day.
I would like you to give up playing tenis.
I suggest that you eat more fruit.
I suggest that you don’t allow your son to play in the river.
I recommend that that wound be treated right away.
I recommend that you go into hospital right away.
I recommend that you don’t go to work for the time being.

C. Dialougue
Ayu : Hi Dewi, I heard that you ‘re sick, is it right?
Dewi : Yes, I’m having a bad day. I got the flu and lately I continue
to be in the house to take a rest.
Ayu : Have you meet a doctor?
Dewi : Of course. 6 days ago I went to the doctor.
Ayu : Are you okay now? Are you feeling better?
Dewi : After I met the doctor, my health changed to be better.
However, yesterday my health was getting bad again.
Ayu : Why is that so?
Dewi : I decided to go with my friends, and when I came home, I
feel a bad body condition.
Ayu : I think that was the wrong decision.
Dewi : I actually already knew that I was not allowed to go outside
before I was completely healed. But I really wanted to go.
Ayu : Yes, but that is a natural thing. I will think so if I am sick for
many days. I do not want to continue to be at home and I want
go outside.
Dewi : I agree with you. Being in the house for a long time is not
really good.

are high in vitamin.
Dewi : What should I take to get well soon?
Ayu : Consume vegetable soup. I also suggest that you should
consume milk and yogurt in order to increase the level of your
immune system.
