Re: Asking question

I need help from someone. Which one is better: could you help me or can you help me?

Both are okay. Neither is better than the other.

Re: Asking question

If I need help from someone​, [STRIKE]witch[/STRIKE] which one is better - "Could you help me?" or "Can you help me?"?

Note my corrections above in red. If you start a sentence with "If", you need to continue with a second clause after a comma. Note the correct spelling of "which". "Witch" is completely different - check your dictionary.

The two questions have the same meaning.
