When you travel other countries or live abroad, you will communicate with local people and they sometimes give you information.
For example, they may tell you the name of good restaurants, the name of organization you should contact, or the name of the skin care cream to recover your skin problem.
However, it’s often hard to get how to spell them because you are not familiar with these kind of specific names.
In these cases, it would be a good idea to ask people to write it down.
In this way, you can show the paper to the shop seller and tell them that you are finding it, or can memorize the name later.
Let’s see how to say “Could you write it down?” in 50 different languages.
