We SPEAK Ah, Vera, it's great that you've come with me during our lunch break to do some shopping.
I need to buy a suit to go to a wedding and I have to look very smart.
And I will make sure of that robe.
Everybody says I have good taste.
I've always chosen my husband's and my son's pyjamas.
And they look good while they sleep.
Rob, I love that grey suit in the window.
Wow.
It looks really smart.
Actually, it will make me look great.
Exactly.
Let's go into the shop.
You must try it.
The colour suits you, sir.
I will see if I can find a smaller size so that it fits you perfectly.
You see, Rob, this salesman knows what he is talking about.
He thinks it looks good on you.
But he is right.
