ATTENTION 1
We can use ‘’want’’ instead of ‘’would like’’. However, ‘’would like’’ is more formal and politer.
Examples

- Would you like to attend my birthday party?
• We use some common expressions to accept or refuse an offer / invitation.
Accepting Refusing

Yes, please. No, thanks.
Just a few, please. No, I’m full.
I’d love to. Thanks. I’d love to, but I can’t.
That sounds great. I’m sorry, but I can’t.
Thanks for inviting me. Thanks for inviting me, but I’m really busy.
ATTENTION 2! Examples
We can use ‘’Why don’t ….? / How-What -- Why don’t you buy a CD for her?
about ….?’’ question forms to ask for
suggestions. - Why don’t we join Mike’s birthday party?
