92. 5:06Thank you for shopping with me.
93. 5:10See you in the next lesson.
94. 5:17>> Now let's practice the English from
95. 5:19today's clothes shopping lesson.
96. 5:22Imagine that you are in a clothing
97. 5:25store. You want to find something nice
98. 5:28to wear for a special occasion.
99. 5:31Listen carefully. I will speak slowly.
100. 5:35After each sentence, take a short pause
101. 5:38and repeat it aloud.
102. 5:40Take your time. You do not need to speak
103. 5:43quickly.
104. 5:45Let's begin.
105. 5:46A sweater is a warm piece of clothing
106. 5:50that you wear on your upper body.
107. 5:52For example,
108. 5:54I'm looking for a sweater.
109. 6:00A size tells us how big or small a piece
110. 6:05of clothing is.
111. 6:06Common sizes are small,
112. 6:11medium,
113. 6:14large, and extra large.
114. 6:18For example,
115. 6:20do you have this in medium?
116. 6:25A color tells us what something looks
117. 6:29like. You can ask about different colors
118. 6:32when you are shopping.
119. 6:33For example,
120. 6:35do you have this in another color?
121. 6:41A fitting room is a small room in a
122. 6:44clothing store where you can try on
123. 6:47clothes.
124. 6:48For example, where is the fitting room?
125. 6:55To try on clothes means to put them on
126. 6:59to see if they fit and look good. For
127. 7:02example, I'd like to try it on.
128. 7:08If something fits well, it means it is
129. 7:11the right size for you. For example, it
130. 7:15fits well.
131. 7:20If something is too small, it means you
132. 7:23need a bigger size. For example,
133. 7:26this one is a little too small.
134. 7:32If something is too big, it means you
135. 7:35need a smaller size. For example, these
136. 7:39trousers are too big.
137. 7:45A receipt is the paper that shows what
138. 7:48you bought and how much you paid. For
139. 7:50example, here is your receipt.
140. 7:57A shopping bag is the bag you receive
141. 8:00for carrying the clothes you bought.
142. 8:03For example, here is your shopping bag.
143. 8:09Now, let's practice some useful shopping
144. 8:13sentences.
145. 8:14Listen and repeat.
146. 8:16Hello. Can I help you?
147. 8:22Yes, please.
148. 8:24I'm looking for a sweater.
149. 8:31Do you have this in medium?
150. 8:38Do you have it in cream?
151. 8:45Where is the fitting room?
152. 8:51I'd like to try it on.
153. 8:58It fits well.
154. 9:04This one is a little too small.
155. 9:11Do you have a larger size?
156. 9:20What do you think?
157. 9:25I think I'll take it.
158. 9:31Can I pay by card?
159. 9:38Here is your receipt.
160. 9:45Thank you very much.
161. 9:51Now, let's put everything together in a
162. 9:54simple conversation.
163. 9:57Imagine that you are Sarah.
164. 10:00You walk into a clothing store.
165. 10:03The sales assistant smiles and welcomes
166. 10:07you.
167. 10:08Hello, can I help you?
168. 10:12You answer, yes, please. I'm looking for
169. 10:17a sweater.
170. 10:20The assistant shows you a sweater.
171. 10:23How about this sweater?
172. 10:27You answer, I like it.
173. 10:32You want to know if they have your size.
174. 10:36Do you have this in medium?
175. 10:41The assistant checks the clothes. Yes,
176. 10:45we do.
177. 10:48You want to try it on.
178. 10:51Where is the fitting room?
179. 10:56The assistant gives you directions.
180. 10:59You try on the sweater and look in the
181. 11:02mirror.
182. 11:04It fits well.
183. 11:07You decide to buy it.
184. 11:10I think I'll take it.
185. 11:14At the checkout, the assistant tells you
186. 11:18the price.
187. 11:19You ask, can I pay by card?
188. 11:25After you pay, the assistant gives you
189. 11:29your receipt.
190. 11:30Here is your receipt.
191. 11:34You smile and say, "Thank you very
192. 11:38much."
193. 11:41Now, let's practice a few useful
194. 11:45shopping questions one more time.
195. 11:48What size do you need?
196. 11:52Do you have this in medium?
197. 11:58Do you have another color?
198. 12:03Where is the fitting room?
199. 12:08Can I try this on?
200. 12:13Does it fit well?
201. 12:17How much is it?
202. 12:22Can I pay by card?
203. 12:27Can I have my receipt, please?
204. 12:32These simple sentences can help you feel
205. 12:36more comfortable when shopping in
206. 12:38English.
207. 12:40Remember these five important words.
208. 12:43Sweater,
209. 12:45a warm piece of clothing for your upper
210. 12:48body.
211. 12:50Size,
212. 12:51how big or small something is.
213. 12:55Fitting room, a place where you try on
214. 12:59clothes.
215. 13:00Receipt, a paper showing what you bought
216. 13:04and paid for.
217. 13:06Try on, to put clothes on to see if they
218. 13:11fit.
219. 13:14Now, imagine that you are shopping in an
220. 13:17English-speaking store.
221. 13:20Take your time.
222. 13:22Look at the clothes.
223. 13:24Ask questions.
224. 13:26Try things on,
225. 13:28and speak with confidence.
226. 13:30You do not need perfect English. You
227. 13:34only need simple words and useful
228. 13:37sentences.
229. 13:38Keep practicing these expressions aloud.
230. 13:42The more you repeat them, the more
231. 13:44natural they will feel.
232. 13:48You have now practiced the most useful
233. 13:51English for clothes shopping. You
234. 13:54learned how to ask for a size, ask about
235. 13:57colors, find the fitting room, try on
236. 14:01clothes, talk about the fit, pay by
237. 14:04card, and ask for a receipt.
238. 14:08Keep practicing your English every day.
239. 14:11See you in the next lesson.
