SUGGESTIONS
Use let's to make a suggestion about something you and someone else could do together. Let's ... is a fairly firm way to suggest something, and is usually used when you think the other person will agree : Let's go somewhere different tonight! | Let's start by introducing ourselves.
!! Do not forget the apostrophe : Let's go (NOT Lets go).
!! To make a negative suggestion, do not say 'let's don't'. Use let's not : Let's not tell anyone about this. | Let's not go out tonight.
Speakers of British English also sometimes say don't let's : Don't let's argue.
