Significado
To suggest a course of action.
Contexto cultural
Unsolicited advice is very common and usually seen as a sign of friendliness rather than nosiness. The concept of 'Shura' (consultation) makes giving and taking advice a spiritual merit. In offices, 'Mashwara' is often replaced by 'Tajweez' to sound more formal and less personal. Younger people often accept advice with the phrase 'Aap ka mashwara sar aankhon par' (Your advice is on my head and eyes), meaning they highly value it.
Softening Advice
Start with 'Mera mashwara hai ke...' (My advice is that...) to sound more polite and less bossy.
The 'Ko' Rule
Never forget to put 'ko' after the person you are advising. 'Ali ko mashwara do' is correct.
