Hi! I’ve categorized several commands used to tell someone to enter a space. Could you please check if my classification of these phrases and their usage contexts is correct? **1. Commands or Urging in Emergencies:** * *Phrases:* Get in! ; Get inside! ; Go in! ; Go inside! **2. Urging someone you know (friends/family) who is blocking the entrance (e.g., they are on the phone or looking for something in their bag).** I avoid "Please" or "Excuse me" here because it feels too formal for close relationships: * *Phrases:* Go in! ; Go inside! ; Go on in! ; Go on inside! ; Go ahead! ; Head in! ; Head inside! ; Head on in! ; Head on inside! ; Step inside! ; Step on in! ; Step on inside! * *My Note:* If speaking to my children, I use "**Go**" for a firm command, and "**Head**" for a more friendly, cooperative tone. Is that right? **3. Urging a stranger who is blocking the entrance.** I should add "Please" or "Excuse me": * *Phrases:* Excuse me! + (Go on in! ; Go ahead! ; Head in! ; Step inside! ...etc) + Please! **4. Inviting/Urging someone to enter together with the speaker:** * *Phrases:* Head in! ; Head inside! **5. Inviting someone into your own home or room:** * *Phrases:* Come in! ; Come inside! **6. Inviting a customer into a service establishment (restaurant, hotel, etc.):** * *Phrases:* Step inside! **7. Encouraging someone who is hesitating or lingering at the door:** * *Phrases:* Go on in! ; Go on inside! ; Go ahead! ; Come on in! ; Come on inside! ; Step on in! ; Step on inside! ; Head on in! ; Head on inside! **8. Crowding control/Directing a group (e.g., a security guard or a tour guide):** * *Phrases:* Move inside! ; Move on

Please is not more formal, it is polite in any instance.

To use things like, 'Excuse me, can you move aside', 'Excuse me, I'm trying to pass', or 'Excuse me, I need to pass', 'Could I pass'
