How to Express Asking and Giving Opinion?



So, Gengs, in this article I will give you a lesson about asking and giving opinion 

Definition

What do you know about asking and giving opinion? Asking and giving opinions is a way for someone to ask and give opinions to others. When doing daily activities, we usually can't escape common expressions. 
If you need to speak English during meetings, business lunches, or in any type of general conversation, you will probably spend a percentage of this time asking and giving opinions. If you are a naturally curious person, or you welcome the suggestions of others, you will often ask for the opinions of others. And if you enjoy expressing your ideas, giving your opinion is something you will do regularly.


The Expressions
There are many expressions of asking and giving opinion. There are two ways to express, which are in formal and informal. 

  • Formal Expressions of Asking Opinion 

a.     Would you give me your opinion on …?

b.     What are your views on …?     

  • Informal Expressions of Asking Opinion 

a.       What do you think about …?

b.       Any comments? 

  • Formal Expressions of Giving Opinion

a.     My opinion about..

b.     In my point on view..,    

  • Informal Expressions of Giving Opinion 

a.       I think that...
b.       From my point of view...

As you know, the formal way is used when you express to your elders, to strangers and during meetings. However, the formal way can be used with your friends and family. The informal way is used when express with those closest to you or your friends. 

Example of Asking and Giving Opinion

Alan: Hey, Steph, what did you think of the new Terminator film?

Steph: Well, in my opinion, it wasn't as good as the older ones. I didn't find the story line believable

Alan: Yeah true, it was strange


Okay, Gengs! A little lesson that I can attach about asking and giving opinions. Hopefully it can be useful for all of you, see you in the next article.
