  • Hey guys! It's Ariannita la Gringa and  welcome back to my YouTube channel!  

  • Today I'm gonna take you guys with me to go  shopping and we are going to go shopping at  

  • the biggest mall in my city of CincinnatiOhio called Kenwood Towne Centre. This mall  

  • is an indoor shopping mall and that means  that all of the stores are inside so come  

  • along with me and let's go and learn  some shopping vocabulary at the mall

  • I just entered through the main entrance  of the mall. This mall has four entrances,  

  • but this is the main entrance. Also, it feels so  nice and refreshing to be inside the mall because  

  • this mall has A/C and lots of cool air to cool me  down because right now we are in the middle of the  

  • summer and it's scorching hot. It feels so nice to  be inside. When you walk inside the main entrance,  

  • to my left, the first thing that you see isrestaurant called The Cheesecake Factory and  

  • they're famous for their cheesecake. Here at the  mall, they have a ton of different restaurants but  

  • they also have a food court which I'll show you  guys later. But, let's continue on with the video.  

  • When you enter the mall, you can walk up these  stairs right behind me or you can choose to walk  

  • up this huge ramp. And why do they have a ramp  and a set of stairs? Well they have a ramp so  

  • people who have a disability or people who usewheelchair or a cane can go down this ramp instead  

  • of walking up the stairs. When you go to the mall  you may know exactly what you want to buy and  

  • what store you want to go to. Well behind me isdirectory and it has a huge map of all the stores  

  • that they have inside this mall so it makes itlot easier for you to go shopping. This directory  

  • shows you all of the different sections of things  you want to buy. If you want to buy something  

  • specific (clothing for men) you would look at the  apparel for men. Or if you want to look at a store  

  • that has clothing for both men and women you will  look at the section that has apparel for men and  

  • women. So they have different sections like  electronics, eyewear, jewelry and accessories  

  • that you can see in this directory. The main  entrance leads me to the upper level. Right now,  

  • I'm on the upper level and this mall has two  levels the upper level and the lower level.  

  • There are three different ways to go downstairs  the first one is using the stairs (going down the  

  • stairs) and the second one I'll show you but first  you guys have to name it. So come along with me!  

  • I'm going to use this to go downstairs  to the lower level but first I'll give  

  • you three seconds to tell me what it's called...

  • This is called an escalator escalator and I'm  going to take you guys with me to go down.

  • I just went down the escalator. Now I'm on the  lower level of the shopping mall and behind me  

  • is the food court. As you can see, there is a sign  that says we are at the food court. So let's see  

  • what kind of restaurants and fast food chains  that they have here. In this food court they  

  • have fast food chains and local franchises at  the mall. So I'm gonna take a look to see what  

  • type of different fast food chains that they haveAlso, they don't have restaurants here. Normally  

  • the restaurants are by the exit of the mall like  the Cheesecake Factory was by the main entrance  

  • of the mall. So let's take a look at the food that  they have. Right here is Sbarro. It's a fast food  

  • chain and they sell Italian food like pizza. Here  I'm at Sbarro and they sell pizza. I wanted to  

  • ask you guys... How much does one slice of pizza  cost you guys in your country? Here in America it  

  • costs $4.99 for one slice of pizza. Do you guys  think that is cheap or do you guys think that is  

  • expensive? If you wanted to make it a combo with  an extra side and a drink that would be $8.99. Let  

  • me know if you guys think that's expensive. Let's  keep on moving on and see what other franchises  

  • they have at this food court. This is a local  franchise called Gold Star Chili and they sell  

  • a hot dog with chili and cheese on top. If you  guys saw my baseball video you guys would know  

  • exactly what I'm talking about and that is called  a coney. Of course, you can't miss out on ordering  

  • Chinese food at the mall. I think almost every  mall sells Chinese food. But, let's keep moving  

  • on and see what else they have. How do you call  this franchise behind me? This is called Popeyes  

  • and they sell a lot of chicken and their main  competitor is KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken). And  

  • behind me are two of the most popular franchises  in the U.S. they are called Chick-fil-A and  

  • Chipotle. As you can see, they're pretty popular  because people are waiting in line long lines at  

  • the mall. Compared to the other fast food chains  these are more popular because there is a line.  

  • Walking away from the food court, now I'm going  to show you two different places where you can  

  • do your shopping. The first place is right behind  me. This is called a store. This store sells hats.  

  • And another place where you can go shopping  is this thing right here. What is it called?  

  • This is called a kiosk and this kiosk sells things  for your phone like phone cases and chargers and  

  • it's a lot smaller compared to a store. Now that  we've been to the upper level, the lower level,  

  • the food court, and you guys know the difference  between a store and a kiosk, let's keep on moving  

  • on and see what this mall has to offer for their  shoppers. Right behind me is one of my favorite  

  • stores at this shopping mall and it's called  Akira. Also, they sell clothes just for women and  

  • these clothes are trendy which means these clothes  are in style. And behind me are clothes that are  

  • pink because right now the Barbie movie is trendyAlso, how do you call this person that is wearing  

  • clothes? That is called a mannequin mannequinAnd why do stores have mannequins by their window?  

  • Well stores like clothing stores have mannequinsso when people walk around through the mall they  

  • can look at the mannequins and see wow what nice  clothes they have and maybe they can even enter  

  • the store and buy the things they're looking atNow I'm here with Tonya Malaysia and I'm gonna ask  

  • them what are their favorite stores at this mall.  I would say Foot Locker because I like shoes or I  

  • like to go to Chipotle. 'Cuz' is an informal way  of saying 'because' so the correct way to say this  

  • is 'I would say Foot Locker because I like shoes  or I like to go to Chipotle. I say Hollister. Foot  

  • Locker they be havin' alotta good stuff. 'I sayis incorrect grammar. The correct phrase is 'I  

  • would say'. 'Hollisters' is not the official  name of the store. It's called 'Hollister'.  

  • They be havin' is informal English. 'Alotta' is  an informal contraction of 'a lot of. The correct  

  • way to say everything is... I would say HollisterFoot Locker has a lot of good stuff. And what do  

  • you like to do at the mall? What do you normally  do here? We like we chill. We be hanging out with  

  • our friends and just buying stuff. Just livinlife. Walking around, getting food, buying stuff,  

  • shopping, basically just hanging out. AwesomeThank you guys! Now I'm at a shoe store so I'm  

  • going to see what they have. This is a sandal and  Birkenstocks are one of the most popular sandals  

  • right now because they are very comfortable for  your feet. This shoe store also has shoes like  

  • Converse. These are Converse. They also have  Crocs with holes in them. This is a video game  

  • store. Come along with me and let's see what are  the most popular video games that they have...

  • These video games are for the newest PS5. Solet's see how much each game costs. This game  

  • costs $29.99. This video game costs $89. Would  you guys pay $89 for a video game? Let me know  

  • down below. This store sells pre-owned video  games so this just means that people have used  

  • these before and this is a good way if you have  had a video game for a really long time and you  

  • want to sell it to the store and now the store  will resell this video game for a cheaper price.  

  • This price is $14. This is definitely cheaper  compared to the newer video games. They also  

  • have video games for different consoles  like Xbox and I believe that these video  

  • games are a bit cheaper. This store also has  another console called Nintendo so they have  

  • a TV right here and with this controller I can  try out some of their games like Mario Kart,  

  • or I can play Donkey Kong or Minecraft andcan try out a game to see if I want to buy it.  

  • This is a store that sells athletic gear  here they sell Nike, Air Jordan, Adidas,  

  • Puma, Crocs, Converse, Reebok, Champion SonyTimberland, and Sonetti. Now let's go inside.

  • These shoes are called gym shoes or sneakers  and they cost $160. This store sells athletic  

  • gear like sweatshirts, shorts, and sweatpants.  I'm going to see the price. This tag says $100.  

  • These shorts cost $70 and these sweatpants cost  $95. And this store behind me is Macy's. This is  

  • a department store. And what is a department  store? A department store is a large store  

  • located at the end of a mall. This store sells  things like clothes, perfume, cologne, cosmetics,  

  • home accessories, jewelry, anything you can name  of inside of a huge store so let's see what they  

  • have. A department store sells things like girls  clothing for little girls. They also sell toys.  

  • They have beauty products right here. And, if you  get lost and you need to find something they have  

  • signs on the ceiling. With the clothing they  have the different ages so if you're a girl and  

  • you're 7 to 16 years old this would probably  be your size. Inside this department store,  

  • they have a Starbucks kiosk just a little mini  Starbucks store in this small. They also have  

  • a bigger Starbucks store and that lets you guys  know that here Americans love their coffee. They  

  • are "coffee lovers". Are you guys a coffee loverLet me know down below. There are three ways you  

  • can move from the lower level to the upper level  at the mall. The first way is going up the stairs,  

  • the second way is up the escalator, and the  third way is this... What is this called?  

  • This is called an elevator elevator and  I'm going to move from the lower level  

  • to the upper level. I'm going to push this button.

  • I went up the elevator. Here at Macy's they  have a lot of cosmetic products and you can  

  • ask someone for help in case you need itHi! I'm looking for a lipstick, but I want  

  • a pink lipstick. All right all of our options  are right here. Perfect! Thank you. There are  

  • two ways to pronounce the highlighted word. You  can pronounce it like 'Hour' 'Hour'. For example:  

  • It's my dog and your dog. It's our dog. The  other way to pronounce this word is 'Are'  

  • 'Are'. Our dog. In America, 'Are' is the most  common pronunciation. All right, all of our  

  • options are right here. Now, we're on the upper  level and I found the LEGO store. So this is a  

  • toy store for kids or for adults so let's see  what is the most expensive Lego set inside.

  • I wasn't allowed to record inside the LEGO store  (the toy store), but I found one of their most  

  • expensive sets of Legos (The Eiffel Tower) at  $629.99. Is that pricey? Let me know. Also, that  

  • price tag $629 does not include the tax. It can  get very expensive when you're shopping for items  

  • over a hundred dollars. Over here, they have the  Darth Vader display and that is just for display,  

  • but you can go inside and take a picture with itWhen I pass by this store it smells like a candy  

  • shop but it's not a candy shop. This store Bath  and Body Works sells things like candles, perfume,  

  • shampoo, conditioner, everything that would make  your house smell so good. I'm going to pop in  

  • the store and check out their products and smell  their candles. This is a beautiful display but it  

  • looks kind of weird. You know why? Because this  display is just for Halloween. Right now we are  

  • in the month of July. I'm recording this right now  in July and they have things for Halloween. July,  

  • August, September, October... We're almost  four months away from Halloween and they  

  • have a huge display. I'm going to smell this  candle and it's called pumpkin pecan waffles.  

  • It smells like a pumpkin pecan waffle. I was  making fun of all of the products they have  

  • out for Halloween, but I picked out something I'm  going to buy. This is a pumpkin, but it lights up  

  • and I think you can see a skeleton light up inside  so I'm gonna take this pumpkin and pay at the cash  

  • register over there. There's no one in line right  now so I'm just going to walk up to the counter.  

  • Now I'm going to pay with my phone using Apple  pay. The receipt is fine in the bag. Thank you.

  • Thank you so much! I spent $35 on a pumpkin  and that's the good thing about going inside  

  • the stores and checking things out because you  never know what you're gonna find or buy. If  

  • you're a woman you probably know what this store  is. This is Sephora and they're famous for their  

  • makeup products. I'm not going to go inside the  store because I'm not on a shopping spree. I'm  

  • not trying to buy everything in each store. I'm  just trying to walk around. Now I'm inside a  

  • clothing store called Abercrombie and Fitch and  I want to try on this shirt to see if it fits or  

  • to see if it's too small for me. I'm not sure if  I'm going to buy it or like it, but you can try  

  • things on at the fitting room. It's also called  the dressing room. So come along with me and  

  • I'm going to try this on. They have many fitting  rooms, but they gave me fitting room 107 so I'm  

  • gonna go ahead and try it on. I just tried on this  white shirt but I didn't like it so I'm going to  

  • put it back on the hanger and now I'm going to  check out another store. Now, I'm at the Apple  

  • Store. This is the electronic store at the mall  and it's always busy. As you can see behind me,  

  • there are people inside trying to buy things like  phones, iPads, tablets, computers... You name it!  

  • Now I'm at the other end of the mall. Behind me  are the luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Gucci,  

  • and Rolex. They have a lot of security guards here  because as you guys know these luxury brands are  

  • very expensive and they are out of my budgetWhich means I cannot afford these items inside  

  • the store. Also, the furniture behind me is very  comfortable for people shopping at these stores  

  • and feels like luxury compared to other parts of  the mall where they have seating sections. I don't  

  • think I can record inside the store, but I'm going  to try to find the most expensive Gucci item. Of  

  • course, when I entered the Gucci store, I wasn't  able to record anything inside and when I looked  

  • at the shoes there weren't any price tag. That  means it was out of my budget. I'm going to go  

  • to this store right here called NordstromIt's another department store like Macy's,  

  • but they have a lot of things on sale and it's a  little bit more in my budget. Now I'm at the end  

  • of the mall at my very last store called Nordstrom  and they have things on sale. so on sale means at  

  • a reduced price so I'm going to see things on sale  to see if it fits my budget. When something is on  

  • sale, that means it is at a reduced price. For  example, these boots right here were $170 and  

  • after the sale $100. You can find things on  sale like that all over the store. They have  

  • different brands at different tables and you can  try to find things that would fit your budget.  

  • And what happens if someone takes something  and walks out the store? Well that is called  

  • shoplifting and they have a security system right  here that prevents people from shoplifting items.  

  • If you walk past this security system, the alarm  will sound and the whole store will know that you  

  • took something from the store without paying  for that item. Okay guys! I'm finally outside  

  • the mall and I hope you guys have learnedlot of shopping mall vocab inside the mall!  

  • I hope you guys can go ahead and give my videolike (a thumbs up), go ahead and subscribe, and  

  • give me a super thanks if you like to support my  channel. Thanks to you guys, I'm able to buy this  

  • beautiful orange pumpkin for Halloween. I love  you guys and I'll see you guys next week. Bye!

Hey guys! It's Ariannita la Gringa and  welcome back to my YouTube channel!
