Would you mind...?

Request with imperatives
- Turn the TV down
- Leave the door open
- Please keep the noise down
- Move your car, please
- Please don't park here

Request with modals
Jika menggunakan "Would you mind", maka setelah itu gunakan V-ing.
Example :
(+) Would you mind turning down the radio, Andre? It's very loud.
(-) Would you mind not smoking here? This is a nonsmoking section.

Jika menggunakan "Could you", maka setelah itu gunakan V1.
Example :
(+) Could you move your car? It's blocking my driveway.
(-) Could you don't leave the door open, please?

Maksud dari "Would you mind" adalah berkeberatankah kamu.
Sedangkan "Could you" adalah bisakah kamu.

Refusing a request
- Oh, sorry. I can't right now
- I'm sorry, but I'm busy
- I'd rather not
- What? You must be kidding!
- Sorry, I can't do it
- Sorry, I don't have it
- So what? It's up to me
- Should I?
