I presume that now with the summer approaching, most of you will fall into the consumerism trap ! That gave me an idea and today I'm sharing with you some vocabulary related to shopping that I used with students of Básico 2. I hope you appreciate it :

- Go shopping.
- Go window shopping.
- Do the shopping (buy food).
- Buy
clothes / purchase clothes / shop FOR clothes.
- Items /
products / goods / articles
- Shop assistant vs. Customer. In a bar, there is not a shop assistant, only a waiter or waitress (or bartender).
In a coffee shop/café/caferia, you
can see a barista.
- Department store. (El Corte Inglés).
- Shopping centre = mall.
- Take
something back to the shop.
- Ask for a refund
= ask for your money back. To ask for a refund or to change an object you need the receipt (not the ticket).
- Shop online /
Online shopping. When you shop online you order items and need to create an account.
- Bargain for
a good price :
- The changing
rooms are the places where you try
something on to see if the clothes
you buy are your size. The clothes
can fit you (be your size) and the
clothes can suit you = look good on you.
- You go to pay (proceed
to payment) to the checkout / till.
- You put your items in the trolley or the basket.
Online you can put it in the shopping
basket / cart.
- You can pay IN
cash or BY credit card. You have
to give your payment details online
and your delivery address.
- Ebay is an auction
site/website
Well, I hope you can use my vocabulary in real transactions in an English-speaking country. See you next week ! Enjoy yourselves and don't spend too much money.
