Track 4. Dialogue
Salesgirl: What kind of suit do you have in mind, sir?
Borisov: I’d like a light suit for summer wear, nothing too modern.
Salesgirl: What’s your size, sir?
Borisov: I’m afraid I don’t know my English size.
Salesgirl: You’ll have to try on this one for size in the changing room over there.
(In the changing room)
Borisov: I don’t think it’s my size: the jacket is too tight and the trousers are too short.
Salesgirl: Yes, I think the suit is one size too small for you, here is another, a size larger.
(A few minutes later)
Salesgirl: It looks fine on you. It fits you perfectly.
Borisov: So it does.
Salesgirl: It’s of very good quality, it’ll wear for ages.
Borisov: Will it? That’s nice. How much is it?
Salesgirl: It costs £ 200.
Borisov: Well, I think I’ll take it, I like the style and the colour.
Salesgirl: Will you pay cash?
Borisov: Can I pay by credit card?
Salesgirl: Yes, certainly. Here is your purchase. Thank you for coming.
Borisov: One more thing, please. Where can I buy a pair of shoes and socks?

Borisov: Thank you. And where can I find joggers?
Salesgirl: In the sportswear department. It’s on the ground floor.
