MAKING SUGGESTIONS:
a. We use “Let’s” when we want people do things with us.
Structure: Let’s + verb + complement
Example:
Let’s make a protest against pollution.
Let’s take photos of the baby rhino.
b. We use “Why don’t we?” to suggest to do something together. It means the same as “Let’s”.
Example:
Why don’t we make a protest against pollution?
Why don’t we take photos of the baby rhino?
c. We use “Why don’t you’” to make friendly suggestions or to give advice.
Example:
Why don’t you prepare something? I’m hungry.
Why don’t you come to the zoo? It’s free today.
