I asked Sam nicely to gimmie the book he borrowed last week, but he brushed me off.

Which revised sentence uses standard English?

I asked Sam very politely if he could hand over the book he supposedly borrowed, but he blew me off.

I asked Sam nicely if he could give me the book he borrowed last week, but he refused.

I asked Sam if he ever thought he might be able to kindly get that book back to me quick, but he shined me on.

I asked Sam really super cool like to get me the book he borrowed last week, but he snubbed me.

PLZ HELP ME :C

Answer:

I asked Sam nicely if he could give me the book he borrowed last week, but he refused.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one is incorrect because Sam did in fact borrow the book, not "supposedly."

The third one is incorrect because no one says "shined me on".

The fourth one is incorrect because in proper English we don't use "really super cool".
