          • First you say "would you please", which is "唔該"(please/ excuse me- more colloquial) or "請你" (would you please- more literary); you can even say "唔該" and "請你" together and say "唔該請你" (excuse me, would you please)


          • then you say "help me/ for me", which is "幫我" or "同我"


          • then you state your request.


          For example: "打開度門" (open the door)



          The whole sentence would be:



          "唔該幫我打開度門" or "請你同我打開度門"



          You can substitute "打開度門" with any request



          To be extra polite you can replace "請你" with "麻煩你/ 勞煩你" (trouble yourself)



          If it was a command, you can just state your request directly. e,g. "打開度門!" or simply "開門!"

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of ...
