Welcome back to Real Life English.
2
Hi everyone.
3
Today we are talking about shopping English.
4
This is Travel English Podcast Part 3.
5
And this topic is very real.
6
When you travel, you will probably go shopping at some point.
7
Maybe you want to buy a jacket,
8
a bag, a gift, or just something small.
9
And sometimes the hard part is not choosing the item.
10
The hard part is asking in English.
11
Exactly.
12
But don't worry.
13
Today, we will use simple English to help you understand and learn these useful shopping sentences.
14
We will talk about prices,
15
discounts, colors, sizes, trying things on, tax and payment.
16
That sounds like a full shopping trip.
17
Yes, we'll keep it simple, natural and useful.
18
Great, let's get started.
19
Have you ever walked into a store in another country and suddenly forgotten all your English?
20
Yes, that happened to me once.
21
I wanted to buy a jacket,
22
but I just stood there and smiled.
23
Just smiled?
24
Yes, a very polite smile.
25
But inside, I was thinking,
26
how do I ask the price?
27
How do I ask for another size?
28
That is a very real travel moment.
29
And shopping should be fun,
30
but in English, it can feel stressful.
31
Exactly.
32
The good news is, you do not need many sentences.
33
Just a few useful ones.
34
Right.
35
Today we are talking about shopping English.
36
From seeing something you like to paying at the counter.
37
And we'll keep it simple, but also natural.
38
Good.
39
I don't want to sound like I'm reading from a phrase book.
40
That is the goal.
41
Useful English, but still real conversation.
42
So, where do we start?
43
With the most basic shopping question.
44
The price?
45
Exactly.
46
How much does this cost?
47
How much does this cost?
48
This is very clear.
49
You can use it when you are holding something or pointing at something
50
Like a jacket a bag or a pair of shoes Right,
51
but in real life many people also say how much is this?
52
How much is this?
53
That one is shorter and very common.
54
So how much does this cost is complete and How much is this is more casual?
55
Exactly.
56
If I'm holding a scarf,
57
I can say, how much is this?
58
Yes.
59
And if something is far away,
60
you can point and say, how much is that?
61
How much is that?
62
Good.
63
This is near you.
64
That is farther away.
65
Ah, that is useful.
66
I always forget this and that when I'm nervous.
67
Many learners do, but in a store, people will understand you.
68
That makes me feel better.
69
Now, after you ask the price,
70
you may want to ask about a discount.
71
Of course, everyone likes a discount.
72
Exactly.
73
You can ask, is there a discount?
74
Is there a discount?
75
This means, can the price be lower?
76
Is it okay to ask that?
77
It depends on the store.
78
Ah, so not everywhere.
79
Right.
80
In a big store, the price is usually fixed.
81
So asking for a discount may not work.
82
Exactly.
83
But in a market, a small shop,
84
or a tourist area, it may be okay.
85
So I can ask politely.
86
Yes.
87
You can say, is there any discount?
88
Is there any discount?
89
That sounds natural, too.
90
What about, can you give me a discount?
91
That is also possible, but it is more direct.
92
So, is there any discount?
93
Sounds softer.
94
Right.
95
And you can smile when you say it.
96
A polite smile again.
97
Yes, but this time with English.
98
Much better.
99
Another useful word is on sale.
100
I see that in stores all the time.
101
Yes.
102
Is this on sale?
103
Is this on sale?
104
This means, is the price lower now?
105
So, discount and on sale are related.
106
Exactly.
107
If something is on sale,
108
it has a lower price for a short time.
109
Like a summer sale or a holiday sale?
110
Yes.
111
You might see a sign that says 50% off.
112
That means half price.
113
Right.
114
But be careful.
115
Why?
116
Sometimes the big sale sign makes you buy things you don't need.
117
That is true.
118
A sale can be dangerous.
119
Very dangerous for your wallet.
120
So I should ask, is this on sale?
121
And then ask myself, do I really need it?
122
Exactly.
123
That is wise shopping English.
124
Shopping English and life advice.
125
We try our best.
126
Now, what if I like a jacket,
127
but I don't like the color?
128
Then you can ask, does this come in other colors?
129
Does this come in other colors?
130
This is a great shopping sentence.
131
It sounds very natural.
132
Yes.
133
Come in here means is available in.
134
So it means, is this available in other colors?
135
Exactly.
136
But does this come in other colors sounds more natural in a store.
137
Can I ask, does this come in black?
138
Yes, that is very common.
139
Does this come in black?
140
Or does this come in blue?
141
Does this come in blue?
142
You can also say, do you have this in white?
143
Do you have this in white?
144
That sounds even simpler.
145
So I have two choices.
146
Right.
147
Does this come in other colors?
148
Or do you have this in blue?
149
I like the second one.
150
It is easier.
151
Good.
152
Easy is good when you are shopping.
153
And what about size?
154
Another important question.
155
Do you have different sizes?
156
Do you have different sizes?
157
This is useful if you are not sure what size you need.
158
But if I know my size,
159
I can be more specific.
160
Exactly.
161
You can say, do you have this in medium?
162
Do you have this in medium?
163
Or do you have this in a smaller size?
164
Do you have this in a smaller size?
165
Or do you have this in a larger size?
166
Do you have this in a larger size?
167
Very useful.
168
I like, do you have this in,
169
because I can use it for color and size.
170
Exactly.
171
Do you have this in blue?
172
Do you have this in medium?
173
Same pattern.
174
Yes.
175
One pattern, many uses.
176
That makes shopping easier.
177
Now let's talk about trying clothes on.
178
This is important.
179
I don't want to buy clothes without trying them on.
180
Then you can ask, can I try this on?
181
Can I try this on?
182
This means, can I wear it for a short time to see if it fits?
183
So I can ask this for a jacket,
184
a shirt, pants, or shoes.
185
Yes.
186
For clothes and shoes, it is very common.
187
Can I try these on?
188
Good.
189
Use these for plural things, like shoes or pants.
190
Can I try these shoes on?
191
Exactly.
192
And where do I try them on?
193
In the fitting room.
194
Fitting room.
195
You can ask, where is the fitting room?
196
Where is the fitting room?
197
Or the shop assistant may say,
198
the fitting room is over there.
199
That is useful too.
200
When something fits well, you can say, it fits well.
201
It fits well.
202
If it is too small, say, it's too small.
203
It's too small.
204
If it is too big, say, it's too big.
205
It's too big.
206
Simple sentences, but very practical.
207
What if I want to look at something similar?
208
Then use this sentence, can I see other styles?
209
Can I see other styles?
210
Style means the design or look of something.
211
So maybe the color is okay,
212
but the style is not right.
213
Exactly.
214
Can I see other styles?
215
Or do you have something similar?
216
Do you have something similar?
217
That is very natural.
218
I like that one.
219
It feels like real shopping.
220
Yes.
221
You can also say, I'm looking for something more casual.
222
I'm looking for something more casual.
223
Or, I'm looking for something simple.
224
I'm looking for something simple.
225
Those sentences help the shop assistant understand your taste.
226
So I don't need to know every fashion word.
227
Right.
228
Simple words like casual, simple,
229
light, dark, small, and comfortable are enough.
230
Comfortable is important.
231
Very important.
232
If shoes look beautiful but hurt your feet,
233
they are not your friends.
234
That sounds like a life lesson.
235
It is.
236
Never trust uncomfortable shoes on a travel day.
237
Very true.
238
Now, let's talk about tax.
239
Tax can be confusing when traveling.
240
Yes.
241
In some countries, the price tag may not include tax.
242
So the price at the counter can be higher.
243
Exactly.
244
You can ask, is there tax on this?
245
Is there tax on this?
246
This means, do I need to pay extra tax for this item?
247
Can I also say, does this price include tax?
248
Yes, that is a very useful sentence.
249
Does this price include tax?
250
That may be even clearer.
251
So if I see a jacket for $50,
252
I can ask, does this price include tax?
253
Exactly.
254
And if tax is not included,
255
I will pay more than $50.
256
Right.
257
That is good to know before you pay.
258
What about a discount card?
259
Good question.
260
You can ask, do you have a discount card?" Do you have a discount card?
261
This sentence is OK, but in many stores,
262
people may say, membership card or loyalty card.
263
Membership card?
264
Loyalty card.
265
So I can ask, do I need a membership card for this price?
266
Yes, that is very natural.
267
Do I need a membership card for this price?
268
You can also ask, can I sign up for a membership card?
269
Can I sign up for a membership card?
270
That means you want to join the store's member program.
271
Is it always worth it?
272
Always.
273
Sometimes it is useful.
274
Sometimes you just get a lot of emails.
275
Ah, the hidden price of discounts.
276
Exactly.
277
Now, let's say I've found what I want.
278
I tried it on.
279
I like it.
280
Then it is time to pay.
281
The important part.
282
You can ask, do you accept credit cards?
283
Do you accept credit cards?
284
This means, can I pay by credit card here?
285
Can I say, can I pay by card?
286
Yes, that is very common.
287
Can I pay by card?
288
If you want to use cash,
289
say, can I pay in cash?
290
Can I pay in cash?
291
Good.
292
Pay by card, pay in cash.
293
Why is it by card but in cash?
294
That is just the natural phrase.
295
So I should remember them as chunks.
296
Exactly.
297
By card and in cash.
298
Can I pay by card?
299
Can I pay in cash?
300
Very useful.
301
Another payment question is, do you accept contactless payment?
302
Contactless payment?
303
It means you tap your card or phone.
304
Like Apple Pay?
305
Yes.
306
You can ask, do you accept Apple Pay?
307
Do you accept Apple Pay?
308
That is very common now.
309
Good.
310
I use my phone to pay a lot.
311
Then this sentence is useful for you.
312
What about tax refund?
313
Yes.
314
If you are shopping as a tourist,
315
you may ask, is there a tax refund service here?
316
Is there a tax refund service here?
317
This is useful in some countries and stores.
318
But not in every small shop.
319
Correct.
320
It is more common in larger stores,
321
department stores, or airport shops.
322
So I should not ask this when I buy a small coffee?
323
Probably not.
324
But if I buy a bag,
325
a watch, or expensive clothes, I can ask.
326
Yes, you can ask, do you offer tax refund?
327
Do you offer tax refund?
328
That sounds natural, too.
329
And I may need my passport.
330
Exactly.
331
For tax refund, tourists often need a passport.
332
That is a useful travel tip.
333
Now let's put these phrases into a real shopping conversation.
334
Great.
335
I'll be the customer.
336
And I'll be the shop assistant.
337
Hi.
338
I like this jacket.
339
How much is this?
340
It's $60.
341
Is this on sale?
342
Yes.
343
It's 20% off today.
344
Nice.
345
Does this come in other colors?
346
Yes, it comes in black, blue, and beige.
347
Do you have this in blue?
348
Let me check.
349
Yes, we do.
350
Great.
351
Do you have this in a smaller size?
352
Yes.
353
Here is a small.
354
Can I try this on?
355
Of course.
356
The fitting room is over there.
357
Thank you.
358
How does it fit?
359
It fits well, but can I see other styles?
360
Sure.
361
We have a shorter jacket over here.
362
This one is nice, too.
363
It's very popular.
364
Does this price include tax?
365
No. Tax is added at the counter.
366
Okay.
367
Do I need a membership card for the sale price?
368
No, you don't.
369
The sale price is for everyone.
370
Great.
371
I'll take the blue one.
372
How would you like to pay?
373
Can I pay by card?
374
Yes, we accept credit cards.
375
Do you offer tax refund?
376
Yes, we do.
377
May I see your passport?
378
Sure, here you go.
379
Thank you.
380
I'll prepare the form for you.
381
Great.
382
Thank you for your help.
383
You're very welcome.
384
That felt like a real shopping situation.
385
Yes, and it used many useful phrases.
386
I noticed something.
387
What?
388
I didn't need to repeat the full phrase every time.
389
Exactly.
390
Real conversations are flexible.
391
Sometimes I said, how much is this?
392
And sometimes you use longer questions,
393
like, does this price include tax?
394
So it's okay to mix short and long sentences?
395
Yes, that sounds natural.
396
Can we talk about bargaining?
397
Ah, bargaining.
398
That is a good topic.
399
If I'm at a market,
400
can I say, can you make it cheaper?
401
You can, but it is very direct.
402
Too direct?
403
Maybe.
404
A softer way is, is this your best price?
405
Is this your best price?
406
That sounds more natural in a market.
407
And polite?
408
Yes.
409
Another sentence is, can you do a better price?
410
Can you do a better price?
411
That is common, too but use it in places where bargaining is normal.
412
Not in a big department store.
413
Right.
414
The cashier at a big store probably cannot change the price.
415
Good point.
416
Also, if the price is too high,
417
you can say, that's a little more than I wanted to spend.
418
That's a little more than I wanted to spend.
419
This sounds polite and natural.
420
Much better than too expensive.
421
Exactly.
422
Too expensive is understandable, but it can sound a little blunt.
423
Blunt means too direct, right?
424
Yes, too direct, maybe a little rude.
425
So I can say, that's a little more than I wanted to spend.
426
Perfect.
427
What if I don't want to buy anything yet?
428
You can say, I'm just looking, thanks.
429
I'm just looking, thanks.
430
That is very useful when a shop assistant comes over.
431
So if they say, can I help you?
432
I can say, I'm just looking, thanks.
433
Exactly.
434
That feels friendly, not rude.
435
Right.
436
You can also say, I'm just browsing.
437
I'm just browsing.
438
Browsing means looking around without a clear plan to buy.
439
That is a useful word,
440
but maybe a little harder.
441
Yes.
442
Beginners can just say, I'm just looking, thanks.
443
Simple and clear.
444
Exactly.
445
Can we do another short example, but more casual?
446
Sure.
447
I walk into a store,
448
and the assistant comes over.
449
I'll be the assistant again.
450
Okay.
451
Hi there.
452
Can I help you find anything?
453
I'm just looking, thanks.
454
Of course.
455
Let me know if you need anything.
456
Actually, I like this bag.
457
How much is it?
458
It's $45.
459
Does it come in black?
460
Yes, it does.
461
Can I see the black one?
462
Sure.
463
Here you go.
464
Thanks.
465
Is this on sale?
466
Not today, but there is a 10% discount if you have a membership card.
467
Can I sign up for a membership card?
468
Yes.
469
It only takes a minute.
470
Great.
471
I'll take it.
472
How would you like to pay?
473
Can I pay by card?
474
Yes, of course.
475
That was smooth.
476
Very smooth and very real.
477
I like, let me know if you need anything.
478
That is a common shop assistant phrase.
479
And the customer can say, thanks, I will.
480
exactly very natural
481
so shopping English is not just questions right it also includes
482
small polite answers like I'm just looking thanks thanks I will
483
I'll take it good one I'll take it means you decided
484
to buy it I'll take it you can also say I'll
485
take this one I'll take this one very useful at the end of shopping what
486
if I need more time say I'll think about it I'll think about it
487
That means you are not buying it right now.
488
And it sounds polite.
489
Yes, better than just walking away.
490
So I can say, thanks, I'll think about it.
491
Exactly.
492
This is helpful because sometimes I feel pressure in a store.
493
Many people do, but you can take your time.
494
Take your time is also useful.
495
Yes, a shop assistant may say, take your time.
496
That means don't hurry.
497
Exactly.
498
Good, now I feel ready to shop in English.
499
Let's review the key phrases from today, but naturally.

이번 영상에서는 해외 여행 중 쇼핑을 할 때 유용한 영어 표현에 대해 다룹니다. 여러 가지 상품을 구매할 때, 특히 가격이나 사이즈에 대해 질문하는 것이 어렵다면 이 내용이 많은 도움이 될 것입니다. 이 팟캐스트에서는 간단하고 자연스러운 영어로, 쇼핑에 관련된 여러 문장을 배울 수 있도록 구성되어 있습니다. 쇼핑은 즐거운 경험이어야 하지만, 영어로 말할 때는 긴장할 수 있죠. 하지만 간단한 표현 몇 가지만 있으면 충분합니다.
일상적인 의사소통을 위한 5가지 핵심 문구
- 이거 얼마에요? (How much does this cost?)
- 다른 사이즈 있나요? (Do you have this in another size?)
- 이 색깔은 있나요? (Do you have this in another color?)
- 할인받을 수 있나요? (Can I get a discount?)
- 카드로 결제할 수 있나요? (Can I pay with a card?)
이 표현들은 쇼핑할 때 쉽게 사용할 수 있는 문장들로, 영어 회화 연습을 할 때 유용합니다. 각 문장을 자주 반복해 보세요. 유튜브 영어 공부를 진행하며 shadow speech를 실천하면, 자연스럽게 활용할 수 있을 것입니다.
단계별 쉐도잉 가이드
이번 영상에서 소개된 내용은 아주 기본적이면서도 실용적입니다. 다음은 영어 표현을 효과적으로 익히기 위한 단계별 가이드입니다:

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
