๐๏ธ Shopping: Prices and Sizes
Learn how to ask about prices and choose the right clothes size. Practise useful words for going shopping.
Asking About Prices
When you want to know how much something costs, you can ask 'How much is this?' for one item, or 'How much are these?' for more than one item. When you pay, the cashier might tell you the total price. We use numbers and money words like pounds, dollars, or euros to talk about prices.
Clothing Sizes
Clothes come in different sizes. The most common sizes use letters like S for small, M for medium, and L for large. If you need a bigger size, you can ask for XL, which means extra large. Always check the label or ask a worker if you are not sure.
Paying for Items
After you choose your items, you go to the cashier to pay. You can usually pay with cash, like paper money and coins, or with a plastic card. The cashier will ask if you want a receipt, which is the paper showing what you bought.
