当然若说话者觉得他所提出的邀请比较适合听话人的意愿，或认为听话者很可能会接受此项邀请，或说话双方关系很熟悉等，也可用比较直接的方式提出邀请:
Have a cup of tea. 喝杯茶吧。
Help yourself. 随便吃吧。
Come and see us next time you’re in town. 下次进城，来看我们。
Try some of this cake. 吃吃这块蛋糕。
这里顺便说一句，在 Have a cup of tea. 这类用祈使句表示的邀请句中，一般不宜按汉语习惯加上 please 一词，否则会使邀请变为乞讨。试比较：
Have some tea. 喝茶吧.
Have some tea, please. 请行行好，给我点茶吧。
但是若不是用祈使句而是用疑问句来表示邀请，则可以用please 一词：
Would you like a cup of tea, please? 请喝杯茶吧。
若是被邀请者由于某种原因不能接受邀请，他通常应找出合适的理由向对方说明，通常的方式是先说明自己很愿意(或很想)接受邀请，然后用 but 进行转折。如：
I’d like to, but. . . 我很想去，但是. . . . . .
I wish I could, but. . . 要是我能去就好了，但是. . . . .
I’m sorry, but. . . 很抱歉，但是. . . . . .
Thank you very much, but. . . 多谢你了，但是. . . . . .
It’s very nice of you, but I’m afraid. . . 你真好，但是我恐怕. . . . . .
值得一提的是：在陈述自已不能接受邀请的理由之后，最好加上一句：Thank you just [all] the same. 或 Thank you anyway. (即：尽管如此，我还是要谢谢你)。
在作口头邀请时，虽然其格式不像请贴那样严格，但也往往有些较为固定的常用客套用语，现归纳小结如下：
