SUGGESTION

 A suggestion is an idea or a thought that someone proposes. A suggestion is optional. It

means that on can accept or reject the idea. We usually ask for suggestions from others
when we have to choose from some alternatives and we feel hesitant or doubtful. We are not
sure whether our choice is right or wrong.
 3

 There are some ways to make suggestions, as follow:

1. S + suggest/ suggested + gerund/ noun
Professor Norman suggests/ suggested having a meeting.
Hannah and Frank suggest/ suggested a party
2. S + suggest/suggested that + S + should + infinitive + adverb
Markus suggests that he should sell his house immediately
Mars suggested that we should come early
3. Recommend/ recommended + gerund/noun
Mr. Lee Min Ho recommends reading the novel
Mr. Lee Min Ho recommended this novel.
4. S + Recommend/recommended + that + S + should + infinitive.
Ayu Ting- Ting recommends that he should sell his house immediately.
Ayu Ting-Ting recommended that we should come early.
5. S + to be + supposed to + infinitive
You are supposed to study hard
6. S + should/ ought to/ had better + infinitive + Noun + adverb
Note:
a. We use should/ ought to/ had better to give advice or make recommendation:
You’ll catch a cold if you go out like that. You should/ ought to/ had better take a hat
b. We prefer to use should when the recommendation is in passive voice: The manual
says that the computer should be disconnected from the mains before the cover is
removed
c. We don’t use had better to talk about past or to make general comments,
instead we prefer to use should or ought to: The builders should/ ought to have
finished by the end of the week (Not: Had better have finished)

 We often suggest ideas or things to do. Here are some common examples. You can use
structures to talk about other things.
