Suggestは人が何かを提案するといういみです
例えばsuggest doingという連語を使うとすれば
Suggest walking
－歩いてはどうかと提案する
つまりwhy don't you~という文と似たような意味になりますよね
Offerは普通offer A BかBAの構文で用いられますがsuggestとは意味が違います
A(人)がB(協力や援助など)を申し出るもしくはA(人)にBを差し出すといういみです
最後のABのぶんはgiveとは違い相手が受け取ったかは不明です
例えば
Can I offer you a drink?
ー一杯いかがですか
と言う意味になります
これは覚えていると便利ですよ！
