Гафу итегез, даруханага ничек барырга?
Excuse me, how do I get to the pharmacy?
Туры барыгыз, чатка кадәр. Аннары сулга борылыгыз.
Go straight to the crossroads. Then turn left.
Ерак түгелме?
Is it far?
Юк, якын. Дарухана банк янында, почта каршында.
No, it's close. The pharmacy is next to the bank, opposite the post office.
Зур рәхмәт!
Thank you very much!
