Look for another colour

Original Seemile practice dialogue. This is an imagined situation, not a description of staff or services at this location.

  1. Customer: 이거 다른 색도 있어요? — Does this come in another colour?
  2. Shopkeeper: 어떤 색을 찾으세요? — What colour are you looking for?
  3. Customer: 파란색을 찾고 있어요. — I’m looking for blue.
  4. Shopkeeper: 재고를 확인해 볼게요. — Let me check the stock.
