What do you want to buy? ,F: Since you will buy her a dress, I'll buy her something else. What do you think of a pair of shoes? ,M: Do you know what size she wears? It may not fit her if she doesn't try them on first. ,F: You're right. Do you have any suggestions? ,M: Well, she saw a handbag when I was shopping with her last week.

So we all respect him. ,F: He looks quite old now.
