Quick use

Use これからいですか (kore karai desu ka) at a restaurant when you ask about menu items. It works well when you want a short answer instead of a long explanation.

Chunk or pattern

  • Reusable pattern: 〜 からい ですか
  • Replace the part with the thing, place, document, item, or action you need in that scene.

Helper words and endings

  • ですか: polite question ending.

Practical note

Restaurant staff are usually listening for the key item or problem, so a short clear line works well.
