Signification
Asking for the price of an item
Contexte culturel
Bargaining is expected in traditional markets. Always smile while asking. In tourist areas, prices might be inflated. Always ask 'Berapa harganya?' before committing. In modern malls, prices are fixed, but the phrase is still used for clarity. Politeness is key. Using 'Permisi' before the phrase is appreciated.
Use your hands
Pointing at the item while asking makes it clear what you are referring to.
Add 'Permisi'
