Can I do anything for you?

Posted: 07 Feb 2008 12:40 PM CST

Today’s sentence

Hello again. We’re still looking at questions using modal verbs.

Can I do anything for you?

Notes


Can is used here to offer something.
The sentence means: “do you want me to help you?”
Possibly a friend has invited you to dinner and is working in the kitchen.
It’s polite to ask: “can I do anything for you?” (Do you need any help / can I help you?)
Remember: it’s a question! It’s not: “I can do anything…?

That’s all we have time for today. See you tomorrow!
