Hi colleagues!
could you help me please?
Michael says: "before you give anyone the look, take a moment to glance inside that human being �s soul"
this sentence expresses: advice / warning / or reproach
Thanks a lot for your help.

I think it expresses "reproach � �. Because � � to give someone the look � means that you blame him or her for his or her bad behaviour . � take a moment to glance inside that human beings soul � means that may be there �s an explantion to that behaviour .May be he or she didn �t mean it .

hello. I think that the impeative "take" expesses rather advice. Although there �s no expressions like should or �d better the tone is of someone who �s giving advice. bye |

I would also say "advice", flavored with a little reproach. Bruce |
