Ayubowan!
Today we are talking about talking about being given recommendations
and demands from others. This concept is pretty similar to talking about
things that we want to do, so we can apply this to talking about what we want
other people to do.
If you're not well, you should drink Samahan.
Oya sanipa næthanam,Samahan bonna oune.
ඔය සනීප නැතනම්, සමහාන්, බොන්න ඕනෙ
This sentence implies that the speaker wants you to drink Samahan if you get sick.
Should I wash this plate?
Me pingang eka hodhanna oune da?
මෙ පිංඅං එක හෝදන්න ඕනෙ ද?
This sentence is essentially asking whether someone wants the speaker to wash the
dish, which is why you can use oune in this context.
I want you to give this to Dilshan.
Mata oya me Dilshanta denna oune.
මට ඔය මෙ දිල්ෂන්ට දෙන්න ඕනෙ
