We'll drop off here.

We'll drop off here.
Please drop us off here.

Are both sentences OK?

Thanks.

We'll [STRIKE]drop[/STRIKE] get off here.

If that's not what you mean, post back.

OK.

Thanks, teechar.

If we are passengers in a car, do I say "We want to get off here"?

 

[teechar]

You might use that if you're planning the journey beforehand and giving the driver instructions.
Otherwise, if you're already in the car, you might use "can we get off here please?" or "we'd like to get off here please."

Is it wrong to write? ...you might use "Can we get off here, please?" or "We'd like to get off here, please." (The first letter is capitalised and there is a comma before "please".)

Thanks.

 

[teechar]

I'm okay with the comma, but I wouldn't capitalize "can" or "we" in the above.

Can I deduce from your reply that it's wrong to capitalize "can" and "we"?

If you're in a car/taxi, say 'Can we get out here, please?'

On a bus, you'd say 'Can I get off here, please?'

I would certainly capitalise the first letter of each sentence in quotes. I wouldn't if I were asking only about the first word.

Is it right to say "Can we get off here please?" and "Would you let us off here please?"
Should I use "can" and "would" at the start of my sentences?

It's acceptable to say "we want to get off/out here" in a slightly less polite manner.
