Transcript
- Lucas: Luna, ready for another trip to the bakery? Luna: Oh yes! I still remember 'Jeg vil gerne have en kanelsnegl' from last time. Lucas: Perfect. Today we're focusing on the payment part. After you've chosen your pastries, you need to say you want to pay. Luna: Right. So I'd say 'Jeg vil gerne betale'? Lucas: Exactly. 'Jeg vil gerne betale.' Let's hear it. Luna: Jeg vil gerne betale. Lucas: Great. And then the baker might ask 'Hvad koster det i alt?' — that means 'What is the total?' Luna: Hvad koster det i alt? Lucas: You've got it. Now imagine you want to pay with card. You say 'Jeg betaler med kort.' Luna: Jeg betaler med kort. Lucas: Yes. Let's put it all together. You walk up and say 'Jeg vil gerne betale.' The baker says 'Hvad koster det i alt?' You say 'Jeg betaler med kort.' Luna: Okay. Jeg vil gerne betale. Hvad koster det i alt? Jeg betaler med kort. Lucas: Almost perfect. But remember, 'Hvad koster det i alt?' is the baker's question, not yours. You'd just say your two phrases. Luna: Ah, right. So I say 'Jeg vil gerne betale. Jeg betaler med kort.' Lucas: Exactly. And the baker might reply 'Det koster 45 kroner.' Then you pay. Luna: Det koster 45 kroner. Lucas: Good. And after paying, you can say 'Tak for hjælpen' — thanks for the help. Luna: Tak for hjælpen. Lucas: Let's do a mini role-play. I'm the baker. You come in. Luna: Hej! Jeg vil gerne have en kanelsnegl. Lucas: Ja, selvfølgelig. Det bliver 30 kroner. Luna: Jeg vil gerne betale. Jeg betaler med kort. Lucas: Selvfølgelig. Tak. Luna: Tak for hjælpen. Lucas: Fantastic! You did it. Now, if you have two items, the total might be more. Say you buy a kanelsnegl and a wienerbrød. Luna: Right. Then 'Hvad koster det i alt?' makes sense? Lucas: Yes, you can ask that too. Just say 'Hvad koster det i alt?' Luna: Hvad koster det i alt? Lucas: And the baker might say 'Det koster 45 kroner.' Luna: Det koster 45 kroner. Lucas: Now, here's a quick honest thing.
