@klassiandreams Ok. What about this sentence? Can you look over it and tell me if it’s natural?
“Can you bring a black suit that goes well with a/my dress shirt?”
“Can you bring a black suit that goes well with a/my dress shirt?”
- English (US)
- Simplified Chinese (China)
@klassiandreams So it’s totally natural. What about this?
“Can you fetch a black suit that matches well a/my dress shirt?”
“Can you fetch a black suit that matches well a/my dress shirt?”

@handsomeish bring would be a better word.

@klassiandreams Oops, I didn’t know “fetch” is only used with dogs. 😂 Can you think of some other verbs that I can use to replace “bring” and “get” in this clothing store situation?
- English (US)
Its not only used with dogs. U can use it but in more informal settings. Its especially used with dogs.

@klassiandreams Ok. What about this one? Do you think this will sound natural if I say it to a sales clerk in the clothing store?
“Can I have a black suit?”
“Can I have a black suit?”
- English (US)
@handsomeish no.
You use “can” when you are asking for permission. So if you say “can i use the changing room” that is ok.
By the way are you male?

@klassiandreams So “can” doesn’t work in this situation. Does this sentence sound natural to you?
“Do you have a black suit to match my white/dress shirt?”
Yes, I’m male.
“Do you have a black suit to match my white/dress shirt?”
Yes, I’m male.
