Expressing "show me how to ~"


I want to ask someone (who is older than me) to show me how to wear a Yukata.
I'm just not sure how to say it - slightly beyond my level.

> 先週私は浴衣を買いました。  
>  Can you please show me how to wear it?

Would it be something like this construction:

見せてくださいませんか。

Thanks.




For "(Can you) please show me how to wear it(=Yukata)", you could say:

>   * (浴衣の*) [着方]{きかた}を[教]{おし}えてください。  
>  Please show/tell me how to wear it (a Yukata).
>   * (浴衣の*) 着方を教えてくれませんか。  
>  Can you show/tell me how to wear it (a Yukata)?
>   * (浴衣の*) 着方を教えていただけませんか / 教えてくださいませんか。  
>  politer; Could you please show/tell me how to wear it (a Yukata)?
>

(*「浴衣の」 can be left out in your context.)

Use the verb 教える for "show" in the sense of "explain / give instructions".  
(見せる is more like "show" in the sense of "to cause/allow something to be
physically seen".)

Alternatively, you could say:

>   * どうやって(浴衣を*)[着]{き}る(の)か、教えていただけませんか / くださいませんか。  
>  Could you please show/tell me how I wear (a Yukata)?  
>
>   * どうやって(浴衣を*)着ればいいか、教えていただけませんか / くださいませんか。  
>  Could you please show/tell me how I should wear (a Yukata)?
>

(*「浴衣を」 can be left out in your context.)
