So in this video I heard they have spoken "can I try it on, please" though Can I say "may I try it on, please"? Thanks
Hello Leo Maia,
Yes, both 'can' and 'may' can be used to ask permission. See our grammar page on this topic for a full explanation.

Hi LearnEnglish Team,
Can I use "quid" for smaller or bigger amount? For example: 1,000 quid or 10 quid. Can I use "quid" in informal writing? Thanks in advance.
Hello Truc,
You can use 'quid' with any amount in an informal style, especially when speaking. It's certainly used in writing, but not as much as in speaking. Without knowing what kind of text you're referring to, it's difficult to say how appropriate or not it would be there.
All the best,
