In Japan, some local stores and restaurants only accept cash. When you shop or eat out locally, it would be a good idea to check by asking, “Kurejitto kaado wa tsukae masuka?”, which means, “Can I use a credit card?/Do you accept credit cards?”
(“Kurejitto kaado” – credit card, “wa” – a particle to indicate a subject, “tsukae masuka?/ tsukaeru” – can ～be used?/ ～can be used)
OK, stay safe and see you in the next episode of Speakin’ Japanese.
