English A1 Speaking & Writing #021
Topic: At the Counter — Asking for a Receipt
Lesson overview:
In this lesson, you will practice a very simple counter dialogue. You will ask for a receipt, say how you pay, ask for a bag, and give a short reply. This is useful in shops, cafés, and other places with a counter.
Quick review from earlier lessons:
- You already practiced simple polite words like thank and please.
- You also practiced short counter answers and simple requests.
- Today we continue with a new counter phrase: receipt.
5 useful words:
1. receipt — ri-SEET — proof of purchase
2. cash — kash — money in coins or bills
3. change — cheynj — money back
4. bag — bag — a bag for carrying things
5. ready — REH-dee — prepared
Usage notes:
- receipt: ask for this after paying.
- cash: use this when you pay with money, not a card.
- change: use this when money is returned.
- bag: ask for this if you need help carrying items.
- ready: use this for a simple reply.

3. Here is your change.
