01

“Have you had a chance to look, or shall I give you another minute?”

您看好了吗?还是我再给您一点时间?

Say it like this

Link 'had_a_chance'. 'another minute' = a-NUTH-a MIN-it (Aussie drops the r).

02

“Are you ready to order, or would you like me to start with drinks?”

您准备好点菜了吗?还是先来点饮料?

Say it like this

'ready to' = REDDY-da. Stress OR-der and DRINKS; rise at the end.

03

“How would you like that cooked — medium rare, medium, or well done?”

您的肉要几分熟——三分、五分,还是全熟?

Say it like this

List rhythm: MEDium-RARE ↗, MEDium ↗, WELL-DONE ↘. Pause between each.

04

“So that's one ribeye medium, one sea bass, and a side of greens. Anything else?”

那就是一份五分熟肋眼、一份鲈鱼,加一份青菜配菜。还需要别的吗?

Say it like this

Count on your fingers as you say it. 'ribeye' = RYE-bye. 'Anything else' = ENNY-thing ELSE.
