How can I say "May I have your attention, please?" in fewer words
How can I draw the attention of a group of people who are chit-chatting but in fewer words? Or what are other alternatives apart from "May I have your attention, please?"?
In my mother tongue (Kinyarwanda) there's an expression that goes like "ndasaba ijambo" which literally translates " I'm asking to be allowed to speak" which I thought is a bit more clear when one says "May I get your attention please" but still it doesn't sound to be the "right" translation of that expression (from Kinyarwanda)
You could simply shorten it to, "Attention, please".
