Hope:

Hey, Joey. How’s everything today?

Joey:

Everything’s fine. How about you, Hope?

Hope:

Same here. Everything’s fine. So, what are you browsing?

Joey:

What? What am I browsing?

Hope:

Yes, what are you reading in your hands?

Joey:

This? Oh, I am just looking through this DM.

Hope:

Oh, you mean the catalogue of the supermarket.

Joey:

Catalogue? Not DM?

Hope:

No. We don’t call this thin book a DM. It’s a catalogue or you can call this a brochure.

Joey:

A brochure.

Hope:

So, why are you browsing this brochure?

Joey:

Oh, I am just feeling like doing some grocery shopping after work. Shopping is a good way to release my pressure!

Look! Some products are on sale in the supermarket at the corner down the street.

Hope:

Really? What products are on sales?

Joey:

Uh …toilet paper, tissue paper, shampoo, …. just some 生活必需品.

Hope:

Daily necessities?

Joey:

Yes, some daily necessities. 生活必需品

Hope:

Hmm…maybe I can get a 12-pack of interfold toilet paper.

Joey:

A 12-pack of interfold toilet paper? 是一串12包的抽取式衛生紙嗎?

Hope:

Yes, how much is a 12-pack of toilet paper?

Joey:

It depends on different brands. Some are NT$120 and some are only NT$98.

Hope:

I see. So, are you also buying something?

Joey:

Well, I am running low of shampoo, so I think I should go get a bottle of it today.

Hope:

What about some dairy products? Is there any discount for them?

Joey:

Dairy products? 日記商品?

Hope:

No, 日記 is diary. And Dairy products are products such as yogurt, cheese, milk and ice cream.

Joey:

I see. Dairy products mean  乳製品.

Hope:

Yes. Are there any discounts on dairy products?

Joey:

Yes. This brand of yogurt is on sale. It’s a good bargain.

Hope:

Then, I will go get two bottles of it.

Joey:

I think I’ll get 一品脫的牛奶and 一桶ice cream.

Hope:

You’ll get a pint of milk and a tub of ice cream. Then I will, too. And I’ll also get a loaf of bread and a jar of jam for breakfast tomorrow.

Joey:

Hey, here is a coupon for dairy products. We can use it. You get an extra 20% off if you get two pints of milk.

Hope:

Then, we can buy two pints of it and split the price. What do you think?

Joey:

Great! It is a great deal!
