You can say, "Can you please be quiet?" or "Can you keep your voice down?" or even "Shhh!" with your finger to your lips.

Nothing. Both are somewhat rude ways to ask someone to stop talking. Neither one is polite.

You can convey a lot of tone in "Shhh!" You can say it in an angry way or a very nice way. Good luck!
