difference between tolong and silakan?

[Luqman6448]

I am copying this from somewhere:
Tolong is used when we ask someone to do something for you, whilst “silakan” is used when you offer something to someone.

For example:
– Tolong buka pintu ini! (Please open this door.)
You’re asking someone to open the door for you.
– Silakan duduk. (Please sit down.)
You’re offering someone to sit, but if they don’t want to sit, it’s up to them.

'Silahkan' is a common spelling mistake. The correct one according to KBBI is 'silakan'.

[Pascale662331]

For those who understand French . Silakan=je vous (en) prie, tolong=s'il te/vous plait

What is a phrase difference please and excuse or tolong dan silakan

[Oceanwave1124]

I am an Indonesian Canadian, and I know for a fact that "silakan" does not mean please. It means "go ahead in English. I hope you can fix this mistake soon, Duolingo.

[Oceanwave1124]

There's actually really no word for "please" in Indonesian, and I know this because I'm Indonesian Canadian and have a lot of family members living in Indonesia.

The drop-down menu for "silakan" gives two choices:
a) please
b) please come in

However, "Please come in" is rejected as an answer.
(I have reported this).
