Give advice and respond to advice naturally in English. The lesson covers suggesting an idea, reacting to someone’s suggestion and politely rejecting advice.

Offering advice is only half of the conversation: you also need a response when someone recommends a course of action to you. Examples show how the wording changes depending on whether you are making the suggestion or deciding how to answer it.
