Shopping for ShoesShopping for Shoes

Where are the shoes, please?

No. Most shoes shops in Spain are like those at home. You wander in, find a pair you like and then look for an assistant to help you. It's a logical answer really. Why not look at the key phrases if you want a little help.

The right answer is
I want to try these shoes on, please.
Quiero probarme estos zapatos, por favor.

So if I'm going to try them on the assistant will need a bit of information! What do you think he asked me next?
