Yes, let's do it!

Sian
Yes! Can you remember what they said? Let's listen again to find out.
What can I get you?
Sian
Yes, you'll probably hear 'What can I get you?’ or they may say 'Who's next?'
αα©α£α€α
α΅ααα
α 'Who's next?’ α²α£α α¨α°α α¨αα
α αα α¨αα«αα αα αα ααα± ααα’
Sian
Now, it's time to order. You can say 'Can I have…?' and then give your order.
Let's practise the pronunciation of that! Repeat after me:
'Can I have…?'
αα©α£α€α
α¨αα«αα΅ ααα α αα΅ α₯α» α₯α α¨ααα α α¨αα 'a' αα αα αααα₯αα³αα’ α α αα£α’ α΅αα
α¨αααα α¨αα α°αα 'an' αα αα αααα₯αα³αα’
Sian
That's right. Careful with pronunciation – so we say 'uh' and 'un'. So, 'Can I have a green tea?', 'Can I have an orange juice?' And remember to be polite, so what word do we need to add? That's right – it's ‘please’.

Sian
Yes, and you can just say 'Have here, please' if you want to stay, or 'Take away, please' if you want to take it out of the café. Don't forget 'please'!
αα©α£α€α
α αα¨α¨α»α α α΅α°ααα 'Anything else’ α₯α αα αααα’

That's right – this is short for 'Do you want to buy anything else?’

If you don't want anything, just say 'That's all, thanks'. Let's practise. Repeat after me: ‘That's all, thanks.’
