À propos de お~ください

お~ください is an honorific language expression in Japanese which is used in a similar way to なさい. It is the imperative form of くださる, which itself is the honorific language equivalent of くれる. In this way, it conveys 'please do (A) for me'.

お~ください is more polite than なさい, and may be used when making requests to almost anybody, regardless of if they are higher, or lower status than you).

Caution

ご~ください will only be used as part of the humble speech expression, ご~する (or お〜する). In these cases, it becomes ご~してください.

        Please complete the payment by tomorrow.
        明日()までにお支払いください。(()()う)

        Doesn’t this example rather translate to please pay by tomorrow? Does お支払う mean to complete payment?
        I tried answering with おしはらいおわりください (お支払い終わりください); is this bad Japanese?

        Hey there @bokudake !

        お支払い is a noun that means, ‘payment’. So a more direct translation for this would be, ‘Please do a payment by tomorrow’, but because that sounds ‘too unnatural’, we have used the word ‘complete’ in the English translation.

        お支払い終わりください sounds a little unnatural, but not only that, it willchange the nuance of the sentence slightly . Since おわる means to ‘finish’ it will give the nuance that this payment has been going on for a while (like a loan). This is similar to how ‘making a payment’ and ‘finished a payment’ sound similar, but have a slight difference in nuance.

        I hope this clears it up!

        Thanks for the explanation!

        お支払い is a noun that means, ‘payment’.

        I understand you take the verb 支払う (to pay) here and turn it into the masu-form 支払い, and add the honorofic prefix お like you do with any other verb in this grammatical structure (e.g. お使()い, お()め, …), which turns it into a noun.
