Contoh Percakapan Bahasa Inggris di Pasar

[Mrs. Ratna and his little daughter, Amelia is going to a traditional market]
Amelia : Um Mommy, why are we going to a traditional market? Why don’t we go to a supermarket? Supermarket sells vegetables and fruits too, right?
Mrs. Ratna: That’s right, my dear. But supermarket generally doesn’t give us too many foodstuffs to choose. Traditional market is much more complete than supermarket.
Amelia : But it’s hot, smelly, muddy, and dirty in here compared to the supermarket that’s clean and cool.
Mrs. Ratna: This is what is called the real shopping at the market. When I was at your age, I always came with Grandma to go shopping at a traditional market.
Amelia : Really?
Mrs. Ratna: Yeah. Now let’s go to that green-grocery stall first.
Amelia : Yes, Mom [smiling]
[At green-grocery stall]
Seller : Good morning, Ma’am. Do you need something?
Mrs. Ratna: Yes, I need a cabbage, half a kilogram of carrots and potatoes, and some leeks.
Seller : Um… let me see. Here you are, Ma’am. Do you need anything else?
Mrs. Ratna: I think that’s all
Seller : So…. these all cost Rp. 20,000.
Mrs. Ratna: Here you are.
Seller : Here is your change, Ma’am. Thank you and come again.

Amelia : Now what else to buy, Mom?
Mrs. Ratna: We need meat. Let’s go to butcher stall.
[At butcher stall]
Mrs. Ratna: Hey, good morning, Mr. Joko!
Mr. Joko: Oh, good morning, Mrs. Ratna! Are you going to buy meat?
Mrs. Ratna: Yes, I need half a kg of meat. I need tenderloin. Is every meat sold here really fresh?
Mr. Joko: Of course! I always sell fresh meats that I get directly from supplier every single day. Are you afraid I’m selling gelonggongan meat? Don’t be worried. You can see my meats are all hung up. This is a proof that I’m not selling such a gelonggongan meat. If it’s a gelonggongan meat, there will be water drops falling from the meat. And if you touch or squeeze the meat, it’s dry, rubbery, and coming with fresh blood color.
Mrs. Ratna: [smiling] Alright, I trust you that these meats are really fresh.
Mr. Joko: Alright then. You want me to chop the meat or you do it yourself?
Mrs. Ratna: It’s okay. I will chop the meat myself.
Mr. Joko: Alright, here you are. The price for the meat is Rp 35,000.
Mrs. Ratna: Here you are. Thank you, Mr. Joko.
Mr. Joko: You’re welcome

Mrs. Ratna: One lesson for you, Dear. If you’re going to shop at market like this, you have to check the freshness of anything you’re going to buy first.
Amelia : Alright, Mom!
Mrs. Ratna: By the way, do you know what I’m going to cook?
Amelia: Um…. Meat, carrots, cabbage, potatoes…. You’re going to cook vegetable soup!
Mrs. Ratna: Smart girl!
Amelia : Yum… I like it!

THE CALIPH AND THE CLOWN

 

The caliph of Baghdad hired an intelligent and high spirited man as his court jester, and was much amused by his clever, witty comments. The clown was so well loved by his master that everyone at court showed him great respect. And so the caliph was much surprised one day when he heard his beloved clown crying out in distress from the throne room. The caliph hurried there and was astonished to find the guards beating the clown badly.
''Leave him alone at once!'' he orded. ''Why are you beating him?''
''We found him sitting on your throne, O majesty!''
the captain of the guards explained.
''out of my sight!'' commanded the caliph. ''For sure the jester did not do it with the intention of offending me.''
The clown, however, continued to weep and wail even after the guards had left.
''Stop it! said the irritated caliph.
