‘Please’ is for every situation, when you ask for something politely. It’s not specific to begging, but of course can be used if begging for something (you might use a different tone or elongate the ‘e’ sound to say the word if begging, eg. Pleeeeeeeease! if you are desperate for something). But as a normal way to ask for something, ‘please’ is probably one of the most-used words in English-speaking countries and is what we use in every situation.

Yes, you're correct! The word "please" can be used in different ways depending on the context. * Begging: When "please" is used by itself or in a sentence like "Please, help me," it can convey a sense of pleading or begging. * Asking for permission: When "please" is added to the end of a question or request, like "Can I go, please?" or "Could you pass the salt, please?" it turns into a polite way of asking for permission or making a request. So, the use of "please" at the end of a sentence often softens the request and makes it sound more polite rather than begging.

'Please' at the end of a sentence makes it more polite; it's like a request rather than a demand.

No, that's not entirely true. It's more likely to be begging if it's at the end. But it can be anywhere in the sentence when using any tone. For example: This phrase was used by my accountant this week - it is not a form of begging, it's very professional and is only inviting questions out of politeness in case the client is confused about anything: "Please let me know if you have any questions." This phrase was used by a tutor this week - it is politely & professionally asking for confirmation if the client is happy with the offer presented - it's even a little bit stern in tone: "Please let me know if you would like to proceed."
