Adult-Engagement Phrases (Translate Locally)

These phrases need to be translated in your destination — most providers and translation apps handle them fine. Showing what you want communicated, not the local form.

  • "How much for one hour?"

    Negotiate full duration up front; "one hour" is the universal unit.

  • "I want to use a condom."

    Non-negotiable; if pushed back, walk.

  • "Can I see your ID?"

    Standard provider screening. The floor is 18.

  • "Where is the bathroom?"

    Useful at every venue.

  • "Is the price all-inclusive?"

    Stops surprise extras-charges.

  • "I want to leave now."

    Non-confrontational exit phrase.

  • "Please call me a taxi."

    Many providers will use their preferred local app/firm.

  • "Thank you, that was nice."

    Universal exit; tipping is bonus, not expected everywhere.

Pricing Tip

Always confirm price in Moroccan Dirham (MAD) directly, not USD/EUR equivalent. Tourist-rate providers will quote in your currency and pocket the conversion margin. Standard 1-hour pricing in Morocco: MAD 800–2,500 (USD 80–250) for the typical band.
