意味
Used to ask for the price of an item.
文化的背景
Bargaining is a social norm. If you pay the first price asked in a bazaar, you are likely overpaying. Start by offering 50-60% of the quoted price and meet in the middle. In cities like Lucknow or Hyderabad, the language used in shops is often very polite (Tehzeeb). You might hear 'Tashreef rakhiye' (Please have a seat) before the price is even discussed. On Instagram/Facebook shops in Pakistan, it is common to comment 'Price?' or 'PP' (Price Please). Sellers often reply with 'Check Inbox'. During Islamic festivals like Eid-ul-Adha, when buying sacrificial animals, the phrase is used constantly, but the bargaining is often more intense and considered part of the 'sunnah' of trade.
The 'Bhai' Factor
Always start the sentence with 'Bhai' (Brother) or 'Baji' (Sister) to establish a friendly rapport before asking the price. It often leads to better prices!
Check the Gender
If you use 'ka' for a feminine item like 'qameez', you'll be understood, but using 'ki' will make you sound much more fluent.

よくある質問
4 問You can, but it's very blunt and might be confused with asking for the quantity. 'Kitne ka?' is much better.
In the phrase 'Yeh kitne ka hai?', we use 'Kitne' (the oblique form) because it is followed by the postposition 'ka'.
Use 'Yeh sab kitne ke hain?' (How much are all of these?).
In a bazaar, no. In a private home, yes. Never ask the price of a gift or someone's household items unless you are very close friends.
