Shopping for an Autumn Jacket
Speaking
Role-play
You are in a clothes shop in Istanbul. You want to buy a light jacket for the autumn. A shop assistant comes to help you.
Partner: "Hello, are you looking for anything in particular?"
Your turn: Explain that you need a light jacket for autumn that you can wear to school.
Show sample answer
Model answer: Yes, I'm looking for a light jacket for autumn, something I can wear to school as well.
Partner: "We have these in blue and dark green. What size are you?"
Your turn: Say you are usually a medium and ask to try the green one.
Show sample answer
Model answer: I'm usually a medium. Could I try the green one on, please?
Partner: "Of course. The changing rooms are over there. How does it fit?"
Your turn: Say it is a bit big around the shoulders and ask for a smaller size.
Show sample answer
Model answer: It's a little too big around the shoulders. Do you have it in a small?
Partner: "I'm afraid the small is sold out, but I can check our other branch. Or I can give you ten percent off this one."
Your turn: Politely say you would rather wait, and ask the assistant to check the other branch.
Show sample answer
Model answer: Thanks, but I'd rather wait for the right size. Could you check the other branch for me?
