Note to recorder:

Thank you for your help. I am sorry to only provide English. I am a new student to Japanese and I do not know enough words to use sentences.

Natural speed please. I am interested in learning how to ask for food and items in shops because I will be visiting Japan in October. My tutor is wonderful but I'd like to learn more about the native accent.

あリがとう!

I wrote Japanese translations here. I think there are some different translations. I translated like these. I'm glad if they helped at least a little.
日本語訳も書いておきますね。色々な日本語訳があると思います。私はこの様に訳しました。
お役に立てれば良いなと思います。

話す:
こんにちは、名前はカイルと言います。

これは日本語で何と言いますか?
しばらくお待ちください。/ 待っていて下さって有難う。
お手洗いをお借り出来ますか?
半蔵門駅へ行く道を教えてくれますか?
何時ですか?

I recorded in terms of two of the folloing words.
下記の単語を2通りの言い方で録音しました。

"Shapes:(形 or 図形)" ,
"Square ( 正方形 or 四角形)." ,
"Orange ( 橙 or オレンジ).",
"Grey (灰色 or グレイ) ." and
"Mouse.(はつかねずみ or ねずみ) ".

I heard that "mouse" has different image in English and Japanese.
「マウス」は英語と日本語とでは少しイメージが違うと聞いたことがあります。
I seems that the Japanese word " ねずみ " means " rat " in English.
日本語の「ねずみ」は、英語では「ラット」らしいです。

Your Japanese is GOOD. :)
カイルさんの日本語(にほんご)は上手(じょうず)ですよ。^^

Well....my computer or browser doesn't work recently.
すみません、最近(さいきん)、パソコンかブラウザが上手(うまく)く動(うご)いていません。
So, I can't record and can't listen now. Sorry, I'm not good at computer and this site. :0
それで、録音(ろくおん)や、聴(き)くことも出来(でき)ないのですが、パソコンやこのサイトにも疎(うと)いので原因(げんいん)が分(わ)かりません。

But, anyway, I'm glad to can read your comment!
でも、いずれにせよ、カイルさんのコメントが読(よ)めて嬉(うれ)しいです。
Go for it! :D
がんばってね。
