Basic Spanish phrases for clothing store help?
Liz asked:
I work at a clothing store and encounter maybe one or two spanish-speaking customers a day. I can speak spanish pretty well (took 5 years), but I need some help with a few vocabulary issues.
I work at a clothing store and encounter maybe one or two spanish-speaking customers a day. I can speak spanish pretty well (took 5 years), but I need some help with a few vocabulary issues.
How do I say something along the lines of “Are you finding everything ok today?” or another basic, friendly inquiry in Spanish?
Also, how do you say “size” and all of the size names like extra small, small, medium large and so on.
Are there any other phrases that I’m missing?
Thanks so much for your help!
