Well, I may not like this rucksack because there are few pockets and I can't put small something in it. I think this design is cute but it's not so convenience for me.

自然な表現

Well, I may not like this rucksack because there are few pockets and I can't put small things in it. I think this design is cute but it's not so convenient for me.

1. 'Something' is used when not talking about anything specific. Since there you have specified the size of things it's more suitable to use the noun there. On the other hand, if you wanted to use 'something' there than the adjective comes second - 'something small'. e.g. I want to eat something. -> I want any kind of food. / I want to eat something spicy.
2. 'Convenience' is a noun, and there you need an adjective because you are describing something.

Oh, I see. So, would you like this one? It has the same design and more pockets, to be extra convenient!

Let me see it.
Hmm.... well, this zipper is little difficult to open, like this. It stops in the middle of this. Also, I don't like these zipper's colors. I feel something childish.

Let me see it.

1. We use three periods at the end of declarative sentences, not four.
2. Start all of your sentences with capital letters.
3. Use the indefinite article with the quantifier 'little'.
4. This is a shorter way of saying it. Yours was fine, too.
5. Use the plural with 'these'. Make the possessive form of the plural by adding the apostrophe after the ending letter 's'.
6. This is a more natural way of saying it.

Oh, you do have a point. This color and pattern do look a bit childish. Which color would you like? Perhaps I could find something for you.

Thanks. I'd like these calm color, like gray, khaki, or navy, especially women's favorite. Since I like traveling, I want to use light and convenience to put small goods. My favorite brand is THE NORTH FACE, Patagonia, and Anello. However, it looks nice goods in this store in another brand.

Thanks. I'd like calm colors, like gray, khaki, or navy, especially women's favorite. Since I like traveling, I want to use a light and convenient backpack to carry small goods. My favorite brands are THE NORTH FACE, Patagonia, and Anello. However, it looks like there are nice goods from other brands in this store.

1. You are talking about more than one color so it's more suitable to use the plural there.
2. The verb 'to use' requires the use of an object, and you were missing it since only nouns can be objects. Also, the form of the noun 'convenience' needed to be changed because you need an adjective there as a noun modifier.
3. An alternative way of saying it.
4. It's more suitable to use the plural and the auxiliary verb 'are' there because you are talking about more than one brand.
5. Use the expression 'to look like' when talking about appearances.
6. Use the expression 'there is/are' when talking about the existence of something/someone.
7. This is a more natural order of words because we tend to put all parts of subjects, objects or predicates together. In this case, the brand is a characteristic of a good so it's only suitable to put those two parts together.

Okay, I understand. Thank you for your explanation. I will try to find that type of bag. Could you wait a few minutes?

Sure. I'll check another clothes or shoes while you finding bags. Well, there are so many goods which are on sale, aren't they? Why does this shop discount in this period? Today is not Golden Week and spring wear sale should have been finished already.

自然な表現

Sure. I'll check out other clothes or shoes while you find bags. Well, there are so many goods which are on sale, aren't there? Why does this shop have a discount in this period? Today is not Golden Week and spring wear sale should have ended by now.

1. 'To check something out' means to find out something about something/someone. e.g. I want to check out the new club. -> I want to go and see what the club looks like.
2. Use 'another' with singular forms and 'other' with the plural.
3. It's more natural to use the bare infinitive form there.
4. Use the same words in question tags like the ones at the beginning of a sentence. e.g. He is a teacher, isn't he?
5. It's more natural to use the verb 'to have' or 'give' with the noun 'discount'. Also, since you are mentioning something for the first time you need the indefinite article there.
6. This is an alternative way of saying it. It's also a more natural one.

Yes, there are many things which are on sale right now. Discount is at the moment because we want to increase our profit and sell things from the previous season.

Oh, that's nice. Well, since I forgot buying my sping wear last Golden Week, I'm so glad because this shop has not finished discount yet.

自然な表現

Oh, that's nice. Well, since I forgot to buy my spring clothes during the last Golden Week, I'm so glad because this shop still has a discount.

1. It's more natural to use the to-infinitive form of verbs with the verb 'to forget'.
2. Correct spelling.
3. It's more natural to use the noun 'clothes' there.
4. We use 'during' when talking about something that (didn't) happened throughout a period of time. e.g. I was working during the holiday.
5. Use the definite article with the adjective 'last'.
6. A more natural way of saying it.
