Language functions Opinions

The British use different set phrases for asking someone's opin­ion. The use of each particular expression depends on the kind of situation (formal or informal) and the relationship the speaker has with a person he/she is talking to.

Notice: in formal situations you should be more polite than in informal ones. It's not usually difficult to agree with somebody else. It's much more difficult to disagree in a pleasant way. The British generally use elaborate and round­about ways to express disagreement. And they say that in a tentative and polite way.
