Japanese shopping and convenience-store phrases
Asking the price, paying by card, trying something on — and what you will say most often at a convenience store.
These are the phrases of the Basic level of PAIdojo's Japanese textbook, written in kana with romaji, the way that level teaches them. Tap ▶︎ to listen, or the turtle to hear it slowly.
A word in a tinted box is only an example — put in the word you need.
