〜 で / いい です - Replace
〜with the option you choose. - Good swaps here:
これ,このサイズ,げんきん.
Core words
これ: this.いい: good / okay.
Helper words and endings
で: here it works like “with this” or “this option.”です: polite sentence ending.
Practical note
This is direct and practical, but it can sound slightly like “this will do” depending on tone. If you want a softer feel, これでだいじょうぶです is also safe.
