Japanese Lesson 111: 服を買う(Fuku o kau) - Going Shopping for Clothes
Description
👔 Navigate Real Clothing Store Situations
From: Basic vocabulary → To: Practical shopping phrases
From: "Can I try this on?" → To: "shichaku dekimasu ka" (Can I try this on?)
From: "It's tight" → To: "kitsui desu" (It's tight) - get the right size!
🎯 Handle Common Shopping Challenges
At the entrance: Respond to "nanika osagashi desu ka" (Are you looking for something?) naturally
In fitting rooms: Understand "san-chaku desu ne" (You have 3 items) and counter "chaku" for clothes
When sizing: Ask "ookii no wa arimasu ka" (Do you have this in a larger size?)
At checkout: Say "zenbu kudasai" (I'll take them all) for multiple items
