邀請和被邀請是社交活動中經(jīng)常遇到的事情。邀請所表達的內(nèi)容很明確，確定了目的、時間、地點、請求回復(fù)等事宜。而日?？谡Z中那些隨口說出的話，你千萬別當(dāng)真，這些話只是結(jié)束交談的信號，而并非向你發(fā)出邀請；如果拒絕邀請，千萬要把握好你的語氣和方式，不要傷了對方的感情。東方人做事比較拘謹，剛開始時總會推辭、客氣一番，所以在招待客人時也同樣如此。西方人則不同，他們在待人接物上相當(dāng)直率，所以，如果你向他們發(fā)出邀請而被拒絕了，你就不要再說了。

◎經(jīng)典表達

1.發(fā)出邀請時的用語：

①Would you like to ...？

②Will you come to ...？

③May I invite you to dinner ？

④What / How about going swimming？

⑤Shall we ...？ （邀請對方參加某種活動或詢問對方是否愿意做某事的客氣說法。）

⑥Why not ...？（含蓄委婉地向?qū)Ψ桨l(fā)出邀請時的句型。）

2.接受邀請時的用語：

①Yes， I？蒺d love to. / Yes， I？蒺d be glad to. / I？蒺ll be glad to. / OK. / All right. / Lovely. / I？蒺d like nothing better.

②Yes， it？蒺s / that？蒺s very kind of you. / Thank you， I？蒺d like to very much. / Yes， thank you for having/asking me. / Thank you for your kind invitation. / With pleasure.（接受邀請的常用答謝語）

③That sounds great （fun）.

④I？蒺d like to. Thanks.

⑤That would be nice.

3.拒絕邀請時的用語：

①I？蒺d love to， but ...
