I want to speak English naturally, not like a textbook! ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
I want to speak like a native!! Seriously!!๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Would you please help me by correcting anything that's wrong or sounds unnatural in my sentences?
You can change whatever you want!
It's alright if you change an entire sentence!!
I'd like to learn some common phrases and slang! ๐
Also, I'd like to get your advice on how to have conversations with English speakers.
I'm looking forward to your constructive criticism.โ๏ธ
B: Excuse me, may I ask how to buy tickets?
A: Sure. By the way, do you have such a card, called Suica or Pasmo?
B: No, I don't.
A: If you use trains and buses in Japan, it would be handy for you. You can use it at many convenience stores, vending machines, and many other chain stores.
B: Can travelers get one?
A: Yes, I think so. I think there's also a special card for foreign visitors to Japan. I have no idea if they are more economical than the regular ones, because I don't have special one, but if you want to get a regular one, you can get one now.
B: How much does it cost?
A: You have to pay 500 yen at first, but it's a deposit, so if you don't use it anymore, you can return it to the station and get 500 yen back. So it's practically free.
B: Where can I buy one?
A: You can usually buy an Ic-card from a ticket machine. But I have no idea about the special ones unless I look them up. If you want a special one, I can look it up for you.
B: That would be helpful.
A: Okay. Gimme a minute. Well, there're a lot of places where you can buy tickets, and near here you can buy tickets at Ueno station, but I didn't know if it's a good deal or not. I don't think it's not a good deal, but the pasmo says you get a discount if you show it at tourist attractions, but it doesn't say where the discount is valid, so it may be valid at places you don't plan to go. If you do buy it, you better ask the station staff where the discount is valid before you buy it. Also, suica didn't offer much in the way of benefits. No deposit or something, same with pasmo. The only other thing is that the design of the special both card are a little bit more special than the normal one. It looks like this (showing a picture).
B: Oh, I see.
A: So if you're not that attracted to it, I think it's OK to use a regular one. I'll leave it to you. What do you want to do?
B: Well, what's the difference between PASMO and Suica?
A: Let's see. I think it's the company. Well, I think they are almost the same. But I guess there are more people who use Suica. I don't really know the difference either. I think PASMO doesn't charge a comission when you refund the charged balance, but I heard that Suica charges about 200 yen. Instead, Suica can use up even the smallest change on the card balance because you can also use the Suica balance plus cash to make purchases when shopping. Also, Suica has a longer history, so I guess it has a wider range of use. But I've never been to a place where I couldn't use PASMO, so I think you can use either one in most places. I think there's a difference in the places where you can buy it. Because the company is different. Bottom line, it's almost the same. I think you should buy a card that can be used at the station where you are at the time you want to buy it.
B: I see.
If you want, I can show you how to buy it now. What do you want to do?
B: Hmmm, if it's convenient, I'll buy it.
A: OK. Let's go to the ticket machine.
This place only sells Suica tickets.
Is Suica OK?
B: Yes, that's fine.
A: If you press this button, it will be in English. Let me know if you have any questions.
B: OK.
I bought it!
A: Oh, that's great! Enjoy your trip!
B: Thanks! Bye!
A: Bye!

This sounds more natural in the US.
You also can use it at many convenience stores, vending machines, and many other chain stores.
B: Can travelers get one?
A: Yes, I think so.
I think there's also a special card for foreign visitors to Japantourists from abroad.
I have no idea if they are more economicalwhether they're cheaper than the regular ones, because I don't have specialuse one, but if you want to get a regular one, you can get one now.

No deposit or someanything, same with pasmo.
The only other thing is that the design of bothe special both cards are a little bit more specialnicer than the normal ones.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say so this is my best guess.
It looks like this (showing a picture).
