Giving Advice

To create advice sentence, we can use several ways:


  1. use the modal should

      e.g. You should really try to eat low calorie.


  2. use adjectives of urgency: necessary, important, essential, urgent, advisable.

      at your age, it is necessary that you have a health check up every year.


      It is important that you not overeat


      It is essential that we take good care of our health


      It is urgent that Mrs. Gani exercise every day


      It is advisable that they not get overworked.



  3. Note: expletive it to introduce the adjective of urgency.


      Noun clause (or that-clause) after the adjective.


      Infinitive form of the verb in the noun clause.


      For a negative noun clause, addition of word not.
