Permission
 Permission consists of three things :
- asking permission
- giving permission
- refused permission
1. Asking permission
Asking for permission to do when someone has a desire on a particular matter to others in a
polite way.
 Example :
- Can I go out tonight?
- May we go out with our friends tonight?
- Can he have dinner with us?
 2. Giving Permission
If you would like to say "yes" to someone who asks permission, you can give permission
using these phrases:
- Sure
- No problem.
- Go right ahead.

3. Refusing permission
If you do not want to deny permission, you can these responses:
- I'm afraid I'd prefer if you didn't / don't.
- Sorry, but I'd rather you not do that.
- Unfortunately, I need to say no.
- I'm afraid that's not possible.
Saying “no”, is never fun, but sometimes it's necessary. It's common to offer a different
solution to try to help out even if you can't give permission.

Conversation on the phone

For some reason, phone calls in English are much more difficult than talking to people face to
face. Maybe it's because you can't read the person's expressions or get cues about their
meaning from their gestures. Or maybe it's because you're already nervous before the call
starts. Preparing in advance for a phone call in English is one of the best ways to overcome
these difficulties. Make a list of some vocabulary and phrases you will need to get the
information you want. Then review the study materials we've prepared to learn the most
common phrases of telephone English. Finally, don't worry about asking people to repeat
themselves or to speak more slowly when you're on the phone in English.
Example :
Mohan : Hello.
Meena : Hello, Micro Computer centre.

Mohan : Can I get Miss Deepa, please?

Meena : Please hold on. Let me see whether she has come.

Mohan : Hello, Deepa hasn't arrived. May I know who's calling?

Meena : I'm Mohan, Deepa's brother.

Mohan : Any message for Deepa?

Meena : No thanks. I'll call again in the afternoon.

Mohan : I'll tell Deepa that you've called and will call again. May I hang up?

Meena : OK. Thanks.
