¿Tiene una talla más pequeña?
When to use
Use this when shopping for clothes or shoes and the current item is not the right size, and you want to see if a smaller one is available.
How it works
This uses the verb 'tener' (to have) in the 'usted' form, asking if 'you' possess a smaller size.
- ¿Tiene?: 'Do you have?', third-person singular present of 'tener' (usted form).
- una talla: 'a size', feminine singular noun with indefinite article.
- más pequeña: 'smaller' (literally 'more small'), comparative adjective phrase.
Formality
The use of 'tiene' implies you are addressing someone formally as 'usted'. If you were addressing someone informally ('tú'), you would use 'tienes'.
Notes
Useful for clothes and shoes. Neutral everyday wording.
