- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Korean with Fexingo. I am Lucas. Luna: And I am Luna. Hi everyone! Lucas: We are picking up right where we left off last week. Luna: Yes! Last time we learned about buying clothes. Lucas: Exactly. And today, we are going to the shoe section. Luna: Oh, I love new shoes. This is going to be fun. Lucas: Before we start, I want to mention something important. Luna: What is it? Lucas: This show is ad-free because listeners support us. Luna: That is so true. You can help by visiting buy me a coffee dot com slash fexingo — that's F. E. X. I. N. G. O. Lucas: Thank you. It really keeps the mic running. Luna: Okay, let’s go shopping. Imagine we walk into a big shoe store. Lucas: Right. The first thing you might want to do is look around. Luna: But maybe you don't see what you need immediately. Lucas: So, how do you ask if they have a specific item? Luna: Do I say 'Where are the shoes?' Lucas: You could, but there is a nicer way. Luna: Oh, really? Lucas: Let's learn this phrase: 신발이 있어요? Luna: 신발이 있어요? Lucas: Good. It means 'Do you have shoes?' Luna: Or 'Are there shoes?' Lucas: Exactly. 신발 means shoes. 이 있어요 is 'is there / do you have?' Luna: 신발이 있어요? Got it. Lucas: Say it again slowly. 신발이 있어요? Luna: 신발이 있어요? Lucas: Perfect. Now imagine the clerk says yes. Luna: Great! But wait. My foot feels weird today. Lucas: Ah, so you want to try them on first. Luna: Yes. In Korea, do you just take them? Lucas: No, you always ask permission. Luna: Oh, right. Politeness is key. Lucas: Here is the phrase: 입어봐도 돼요? Luna: 입어봐도 돼요? Lucas: It means 'Can I try these on?' Luna: 입어봐도 돼요? That sounds polite. Lucas: It is very common. 입어요 means 'to wear' or 'to put on.' Luna: And 봐도 돼요 is 'is it okay to...?' Lucas: Exactly. 입어봐도 돼요? Let's practice. Luna: 입어봐도 돼요? Lucas: Again. 입어봐도 돼요? Luna: 입어봐도 돼요? Lucas: Good. So you try them on. They feel tight. Luna: Oof. Yeah. These are too small. Lucas: So you need a different size. Luna: How do I ask for another size? Lucas: Use this phrase: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Luna: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Lucas: It means 'Do you have another size?' Luna: 다른 means 'other' or 'different.' Lucas: Yes. 사이즈 is 'size.' So, 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Luna: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? I like that one. Lucas: Let's repeat it. 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Luna: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Lucas: One more time. 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Luna: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Lucas: The clerk brings a bigger pair. Luna: They fit perfectly now. Lucas: Nice. Now you are ready to pay. Luna: First, I should check the price. Lucas: Correct. How much are they? Luna: I remember this from earlier episodes. Lucas: Yes! It is: 얼마예요? Luna: 얼마예요? Lucas: It means 'How much?' Luna: 얼마예요? Simple and direct. Lucas: Let's say it together. 얼마예요? Luna: 얼마예요? Lucas: Again. 얼마예요? Luna: 얼마예요? Lucas: The clerk says twenty thousand won. Luna: That is a good price. Lucas: Do you have cash? Luna: No, I only have my card. Lucas: In Korea, cards are very common. Luna: So I just say I want to use my card? Lucas: Yes. Use this phrase: 카드 결제해요? Luna: 카드 결제해요? Lucas: It means 'Can I pay by card?' Luna: 카드 means card. 결제해요 means 'to settle payment.' Lucas: Exactly. 카드 결제해요? Very useful. Luna: 카드 결제해요? I feel confident now. Lucas: Let's practice the whole flow. Luna: Okay. 신발이 있어요? Lucas: Clerk: Yes. What do you say next? Luna: 입어봐도 돼요? Lucas: Good. They are tight. Next? Luna: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Lucas: Perfect. They fit. Check price? Luna: 얼마예요? Lucas: Last step. Payment? Luna: 카드 결제해요? Lucas: You did it. That was smooth. Luna: I feel like a pro shopper. Lucas: Let's review the five phrases one last time. Luna: Ready. First one: 신발이 있어요? Lucas: Second: 입어봐도 돼요? Luna: Third: 다른 사이즈가 있어요? Lucas: Fourth: 얼마예요? Luna: Fifth: 카드 결제해요? Lucas: Excellent work today. Luna: Thanks for teaching me, Lucas. Lucas: Thanks for listening, everyone. Luna: Practice these until we chat again.
