Whether you are giving an order, or asking for something, always use "Please" and "Thank you." Using these is the easier way to come off as polite.

Asking for something:
"Could I please have a glass of water? Thank you."

Giving an order:
"Close the door please. Thanks."

for asking something and give orders to someone with respect, u must use the modal verbe " do" eg : do u speak french ? and the conditional form as, would,should,could. and add please at beginning or at the end of your sentence eg: would u give me some money to buy a pen please !

Hello! You should always use the word please, when asking for something and you want to be polite. For example, "Could you please tell me what time it is?" If you are asking someone to do something for you, you should also use the word please. You can also start your request by saying, "Could you do me a favor?" Then when the other person says yes, then state what you need.
I hope this helped a bit.
