Is Okotowarishimasu for a politer Kotowarimasu a type of form that can be used for other verbs?


Or just a special case for Kotowaru?

For the changing verbs to -ri + shimasu. Is this a standard form?




The pattern `お-[V ます-stem]-します` is not just polite. It is used to turn a verb
into a humble expression. Being a humble expression, the verb normally refers
to something the speaker does to or for the listener, for example:

>   * お[受]{う}けします（from [受]{う}けます）
>   * お[持]{も}ちします（from [持]{も}ちます）
>   * お[送]{おく}りします（from [送]{おく}ります）
>   * お[迎]{むか}えします（from [迎]{むか}えます）
>   * お[届]{とど}けします（from [届]{とど}けます）
>   * お[薦]{すす}めします（from [薦]{すす}めます）
>

Note that the り in お[断]{ことわ}りします is part of the stem of this particular verb
[断]{ことわ}ります.
