意思
An informal request for assistance.
文化背景
In France, asking for help often starts with 'Excuse-moi' even with friends, to acknowledge you are interrupting them. In Quebec, the 'tu' is used much more quickly with strangers in casual settings like cafes or shops. In many French-speaking African countries, 'Peux-tu m'aider ?' might be followed by 's'il te plaît' multiple times as a sign of deep respect for the person's time.
Add 's'il te plaît'
Always add 's'il te plaît' at the end to sound much more natural and polite.
The 'Tu' Trap
Don't use this with your French teacher unless they specifically asked you to use 'tu'!
