Japanese phrases-Phone
|In this lesson, I want to introduce useful expressions that you can use over the phone.
Let’s review a basic conversation between A and B.
Conversation 1
A : Moshi Moshi
Hello (This is used only over the phone)
B: Suzuki san wa imasuka?
Is Mr.Suzuki there?
You can also say:
Suzuki san wa irasshaimasuka?
this also means “is Mr. Suzuki there?” but irasshaimasuka is a formal verb.
A: Hai. Chotto matte kudasai.
Yes. Please hold on for a moment.
Or you can say formally
Hai. Shoushou omachi kudasai.
Wow. This is translated exactly the same way but it sounds much more formal.
