  1. ‘Shall we go for a walk?’ is both a question and a suggestion.

    The word ‘shall’ is used to ask if something can be done. Hence it is a suggestion.

    To change it to a request, the question can be framed as:

    May we go for a walk?

    A request needs to be polite. The word ‘may’ adds that politeness.

    To make it a simple, straightforward question, the question would be:

    Can we go for a walk?

    To make it sound like an offer, the question could be:

    Would you want me to go on a walk with you?
