ответ:
both “kindly” and “please” can be used as adverbs as in , “ please finish this task today itself” (which is formal and no emotions involved) or, “ kindly recommend me for a suitable promotion in my next appraisal” (which is semi-formal, with a strong emotional note.) in corporate and business circles, “please” is the preferred choice whereas in social interactions, “kindly” is preferred more often.
“kindly” can also be used as an adjective ( e.g. she is a kindly old lady) whereas “please” cannot be used in the role of an adjective.
“please” can also be used as a verb ( e.g. please yourself with a sumptuous breakfasts) whereas “"kindly” cannot be used as a verb.
“please” use the word “kindly” when you want to express your “meaning” plus your “feeling” !
