Bedeutung
A polite request for something.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Politeness is often shown through indirectness, but '请给我' is the accepted standard for service. Similar to the mainland, but you might hear '麻烦给我' more often in casual shops. Cantonese speakers often use '唔该' (m-goi) which functions like 'please' and 'thank you' combined. Influenced by English, but '请给我' remains the standard for formal requests.
Add '谢谢'
Always add '谢谢' (thank you) after your request to be extra polite.
Don't be too direct
In China, being too direct can be seen as rude. Always use '请'.
