Hi there! I have been learning Japanese at my university in the United States for three years, but there are still some practical language skills I haven’t mastered yet. For one, are there any practical phrases to express that you didn’t hear someone the first time or that you just couldn’t hear them? I know some of the basic one but I didn’t know if there was a more casual and natural way to say something like that.
For example in English I would say “wait sorry I didn’t hear you could you say that again?” Or “wait what did you say — sorry?”
Are there any phrases in Japanese like this that a native speaker would say?
