A platba kartou v zahraničí?
Uh PLAHD-buh KAHR-toh-oo v ZAHG-ruh-nee-chee?
And paying by card abroad?
THEY SAY
Platba je v pořádku, ale terminál se může zeptat, v jaké měně zaplatit. Vybírejte místní měnu, vyjde to levněji.PLAHD-buh yeh f POR-zhuht-koo, AH-leh TEHR-mee-nuhl seh MOO-zheh ZEP-tuht, v YAH-keh MNYEH-nyeh ZAH-pluh-teet. VIH-bee-ray-teh MEEST-nee MNYEH-noo, VIHY-deh toh LEV-nyay-ee.
The payment is fine but the terminal may ask what currency to pay in. Choose the local currency, it works out cheaper.
