简体中文
In English we use phrases to ask for something we want politely.
I'd like... = I would like... / Can I have...? / Could I have...?

Notes for use of polite request / offer / suggestions :
'Would you like' has the same meaning as 'Do you want' but is a more polite way of offering something!
In English we use the question phrase 'Why don't you / we...?' to make a polite suggestion.
