Key Grammar Structures

• Can I get you a drink to start with?

  ➔ Modal verb ‘can’ for making a polite request

  ➔ The word “Can” introduces a polite request.

• I'll take the bottle of house red wine.

  ➔ Future with ‘will’ (contraction I’ll) + simple verb

  ➔ The contraction “I’ll” (= I will) expresses a future intention.

• I'm waiting for someone.

  ➔ Present continuous (am + verb‑ing) to describe an action in progress

  ➔ The phrase “I'm waiting” uses the present continuous to show a temporary action.

• Could I have a water please?

  ➔ Modal verb ‘could’ for polite request (more tentative than ‘can’)

  ➔ The word “Could” makes the request sound more polite and tentative.

• We have bottled water, sparkling or still, or we have free tap water.

  ➔ Parallel structure with coordination (X, Y, or Z)

  ➔ The items “bottled water, sparkling or still, or free tap water” are listed using parallel grammar.

• I'll be back in a minute to take your food order.

  ➔ Future progressive (will be + verb‑ing) + infinitive of purpose

  ➔ “I'll be back” uses future progressive, and “to take” shows purpose.

• Excuse me, I have a quick question about the menu.

  ➔ Polite phrase “Excuse me” + possessive ‘have a question’

  ➔ The opening “Excuse me” softens the request that follows.

• Should we split it 50/50?

  ➔ Modal verb ‘should’ for suggestion + infinitive verb

  ➔ The word “Should” introduces a polite suggestion about how to pay.
