おつりが多いです / 少ないですって英語でなんて言うの？

Lets look at the first example. "Excuse me. I think you've given me too much change." This we would say to someone who has given us too much change in return after paying for something. "You've"means "You have". It is a simple contraction of two words. The second example is when someone has given too little change: "Sorry, but the change is short." "Short"in this example means they didn't give you enough back and still owe you money. The third example is a longer more formal way of asking for the short change: "Excuse me, but I think the change you've given me is short." This is a little bit longer to say, but it gets the same message across to the other person.

*My change is short. This means that they didn't give enough change and they need to give you the correct. For example: You: My change is short by $2 Till Operator: I am sorry about that here is the correct amount. *You gave me more than you should have. This means that they gave you more and you should return some of the money.

Whether given too much or too little change, you can always say: "Sorry, I think you made a mistake." When given too little change, you never know whether it is intentional or not, but the safe approach appears to be 'assertive' and 'abrupt' so that the cashier is in no doubt that you are 100% sure you have been short changed: "That's short. I'm missing some change." If handed too much change, you can easily mention: "I think you gave me too much change."

Excuse me, I don't think you have given me enough change- It is good to start with excuse me, as the person may be doing something else when you have realised that you have not been given the correct change. Sorry, I think you have given me too much change- This could also be used as " Sorry, I don't think I have been given the correct change?"

This change is short - when you haven't had enough change back and you are 100% sure that the calculation is wrong. Short meaning that it does not reach the money it should be. "Do you want to double check that? I think the change is short." You have given me too much change - When the calculation is over and you have been payed too much than what it should be. "Do you want to double check that? You have given me too much change." Do you want to double check that? - This is the best one in my opinion, and you can follow the question on with another statement. If it is not enough money, they will give you what is required. If it is too much, it's up to them to check it. "Do you want to double check that?"

To inform a cashier that the amount of change that they had given, is too much, you can say "Excuse me, you gave me too much back." You want to use "Excuse me/I'm sorry" at the beginning of your statement because it shows politeness.

When someone gives you too much change, then you can say "I think you have me extra change". When you receive too little change, then you can say "I think you short-changed me". Alternatively, you can say: -This is too much change -My change is short by ($2)
