     「豚(ぶた)丼(どん)1(ひと)つね」「へい豚(とん)丼(どん)１(いっ)丁(ちょう)！」って、そこわざわざ言(い)い直(なお)さなくていいから！「とんどん」って言(い)いづらいから！

     “Butadon hitotsu ne” “hei tondon itchō!” tte, soko wazawaza īnaosanakute ii kara! “tondon” tte īzurai kara!

     You don’t have to specifically rephrase “one butadon OK” as “hey, one tondon,” cuz it’s hard to pronounce tondon!
