    Question (ли)

    Which version is correct, which version is the most polite?

    1. (Я) (М/)могу приехать к тебе завтра?
    2. Я мог бы приехать к тебе завтра?
    3. Могу ли (я) приехать к тебе завтра?
    Чем больше слов, тем меньше они стоят.

    Hi Antonio,

    All the versions are correct. The first one is quite colloquial. The 2nd one is grammatically correct, but it is not used as a question, only as an affirmative sentence: "Я мог бы приехать к тебе завтра". The 3rd one is the most polite. "Я" has to be used in all the sentences.

    In the case of politeness yes it does.
