Beauty & Grooming

1. Эпӗ ҫӳҫӗме кастарасшӑн.

   Epĕ çÿçĕme kastarasshăn.

   I would like to have my hair cut

   Usage

   Tells a hairdresser or barber that you want a haircut.

   Grammar Note

   The causative кастар- "have (something) cut" plus -асшӑн "wishing to"; the negative puts мар after it (ҫӳҫӗме кастарасшӑн мар). Composed sentence — native-speaker review recommended.

2. Тархасшӑн, ҫӳҫӗме кӑшт кӑна касӑр.

   Tarkhasshăn, çÿçĕme kăsht kăna kasăr.

   Please cut just a little off my hair

   Usage

   A polite request not to take too much off.

   Grammar Note

   -ӑр is the polite (plural) imperative; кӑна "only" limits the word before it. It asks for a small cut, not specifically the ends. Composed sentence — native-speaker review recommended.
