Strike up a conversation. Starting a casual conversation first will help you ease your way into asking the question and reduce some of the nervousness you might feel. Ask them if they would like to go on a date. Let them know that there are no hard feelings if they say no.

To ask mostly means to ask for something or take permission so you can add "may" in your conversation which provides a formal permission to your conversation. Ex. You might have asked in your school - May I come in Mam? Which itself indicates respect.

Dear Amjadkhan, when you ask people for something, you should use special modal verbs like, 'could you please?, would you mind? May I?' These phrases make others take a favorable view of your request or query and they will be better disposed towards you. All the best. Great learning.

Poll: In the present scenario, should we learn Queen's English or Simple Spoken English? Our education system has been imparting to inculcate Queen's English, at the expense of Spoken English, in students who study English as a second language. In the melee the students are not able to deliver even one sentence when they pass out from colleges and attend job interviews. I have sailed with Europeans, South Americans, Africans and Asians. They are all good in Spoken English without Queen's English knowledge. English medium schools have multiplied exponentially, a mushroom growth, misleading parents that their children would become "English Parrots". But ground reality is just opposite. Of late even reputed News Papers, who publish articles written by famous columnists, have changed their presentation with simple English. As readers, by and large, don't have time to read papers. Only during Coffee time, they just scroll. No one is there to listen to your lecture. Communication is just sharp and crisp. It may end with SMS style in the long run.
Your opinion is quite right. Learning fluent spoken English is more essential than learning literary English. Despite criticisms on the way english is being taught and spoken in India, I have heard...
