Hebrew for Cashier Phrases in Israel

When you check out in Israel, the cashier usually speaks quickly and expects short answers. You do not need advanced Hebrew for this. A small set of phrases is enough to handle most supermarket and store checkouts.

What you will hear most often

These are the most common cashier phrases:

• עוד משהו? — Anything else?
• יש לך מועדון? — Do you have a loyalty card / membership?
• רוצה שקית? — Do you want a bag?
• בכרטיס או במזומן? — Card or cash?
• זה לא עבר — It didn’t go through
• הכול ביחד — All together / on one bill

You do not need to understand every word. Usually, the last part of the question tells you what kind of answer is needed.

Short answers you can use

Keep your replies simple:

• לא, תודה — No, thanks
• כן, בבקשה — Yes, please
• אין לי מועדון — I don’t have a loyalty card
• בכרטיס — By card
• במזומן — In cash
• כמה זה? — How much is it?

If you want to ask the cashier to repeat something, say:

• סליחה, לא הבנתי — Sorry, I didn’t understand
• אפשר לאט יותר? — Can you speak more slowly?
• מה אמרת? — What did you say?
