At a shop
You are buying a gift and cannot find the right aisle. A staff member is stacking shelves.

What could you say?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
Excuse me, where would I find birthday cards?
A strong fit
It names what you want. One sentence.
Do you work here?
Also works here
This starts things. They will ask what you need.
Walk every aisle until you find it.
Worth a second look
Allowed. The question takes five seconds.
What people here usually expect
- Staff expect "where is…?" all day. It is the most normal question in a shop.
- You can point or show a picture on your phone.
- You do not have to buy anything after asking.
Your words
Write one line asking a shop worker where to find something.
In the app you write one line here and it lands in your lines. Nothing is graded.
The move this moment practises: Ask for help.
