For example, saying <span data-no-translation>I want coffee<\/span> is correct, but <span data-no-translation>Can I have some coffee, please?<\/span> is more polite. Also, remember that <span data-no-translation>juice<\/span> is a general word. In English, we usually say the fruit name, like <span data-no-translation>orange juice<\/span> or <span data-no-translation>apple juice<\/span>, not just <span data-no-translation>juice<\/span> alone when specifying.
