After translating it is understandable, but surely very discourteous to expect the recipient to do so much work.

Another saying from young people is " can I get" a Diet Coke, fish and chips, why not just say please may I have, init.....
I really want to hear the reply that goes 'Of course you can ... it's over there'.
I used to work with someone who had the annoying habit of umming and erring while he was thinking of what to say next, so anyone who wanted to say something was made to feel rude for interrupting him. It was a tactic that did not endear him to his colleagues.'Too fond of the sound of his own voice, that one...'
To be perfectly honest, at this moment in time, , hopefully, me, myself, personally, I would probably, if I were you, just thinking about it - say nowt!
Someone saying, 'I'm sorry?' when they mean 'pardon?' (can you repeat/I didn't hear what you said) I always want to ask what they are sorry for and whether they require forgiveness.
