Sila = please
Ambil = take
Sila ambil is used when you want someone to take something.
For example :
Sila ambil buku ini.
Please take this book.
Silakan is used when you want to welcome someone to do something.
For example :
Silakan duduk.
Please sit
Sila is used in formal situation.
In casual situation, you can omit the word sila.
For example ;
Ambillah buku ni.
Do take this book.
Never use “nah” like the other person suggested. It is very rude.

Lagi satu cara yang friendly;
"Ambil buku ni ya..."
Cakap sambil senyum 😊
" Nah" tu kalau dengan kawan. Masing-masing dah comfortable with each other so tak kisah kalau rude pun.
