For please.
What is the difference between
bonvolu + i : bonvolu veni
and
mi petas + u: venu mi petas

EO try
por diri "please"

kio estas la malsameco inter bonvolu + i kaj mi petas + u?

The difference between using
Bonvolu with the i form bonvolu veni
and using mi petas with the u form mi petas diru

When I was doing one of the lessons it translated mi petas to please but using the vortaro it came out as I request so I want to know which one is better to use as please.

From the dict.
bonvolu (please; bonvolu veni = please come); mi petas (lit. "I request")

Both expressions are polite so you can use them interchangeably. It can be translated as:
bonvolu veni = deign to come
venu mi petas = come, please

PS
bonvolu is sometimes written as bv.

So it all comes down to personal preference?

'Bonvolu' is usually used instead of 'please'. It means 'have a good will to', Russian equivalent is 'извольте'.
'Mi petas' means 'I ask you to', not 'request' (Russian 'я прошу (Вас)' ) and can also be translated 'please'.
