Rosemary, you would not say "Please, a bit of sugar."
"A little sugar please " would be correct.
You would probably only use the word "bit" if you were asked how much sugar you would like, then you might say "just a bit thankyou". But then the next question may be how much is a bit? It is easier to be exact and say just how much sugar you would like, "H

It is my pleasure to help Rosemary, I hope you find this site useful to you in improving your English.
It does make it harder to learn if you do not get to practise with native speakers, so any time you get the chance, be brave and have a go.

Robyn,
Being brave, having a go and harder learning, all these are right. Thank for your advices. And now, I am trying to harder learn English day by day. I still listen English CD every evening, but it's really difficult to do it usually. As you know, finding working time, everybody is quite tired, and so am I. Do you agree with me about that?
