    DescriptionDescription
    This article provides a detailed guide on writing English proposals, covering everything from expressing the purpose to using modal verbs and research-based recommendation grammar, helping readers improve their English listening and writing skills.

    In a simple, more informal proposal, we can use the following language to make a suggestion. I think we should introduce a new spring flavor chocolate. If the proposal includes research, you can use the phrase 'based on' to connect the results of the research to the recommendation. Based on this research, I recommend. Based on these findings, we propose. You will often need to persuade the reader that your recommendation is good by describing the possible outcomes. We often do this by using modals like would, could and should. Look at these examples. This would increase sales in the summer months. Using would means I'm fairly sure of the outcome. If we did this, we could focus more on our other products. Using could means that the outcome will give us the ability to do something. We should see sales increase. When we use should like this, it means that I expect this will be the result. If you're not so sure about an outcome, you can use modals like may or might. We might attract younger customers too. We may see an increase in our online business. Now, you try some more examples. What is the best way to complete these sentences predicting outcomes? Using would help shows that we are predicting a possible result. We use the modals would, could, should, might and may. Maybe is not a verb. We need to say 'maybe we could save.' We use should when we expect something to happen. We use might when we are not sure.
