The act of paying for something.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'fight for the bill' is a common social ritual. It's polite to offer to pay even if you expect the other person to insist on paying. Splitting the bill is called 'Campuchia'. It is very common among students and young professionals in big cities. In business, the host or the person seeking a favor almost always pays. It is considered part of building 'quan hệ' (relationships). When paying elders, it is polite to use both hands to give the money and say 'con gửi tiền' instead of 'con trả tiền'.
The 'ạ' Rule
Always add 'ạ' at the end when paying someone older than you to show respect.
Don't say 'Trả tiền đi!'
This sounds like a rude command ('Pay up!'). Use 'Tính tiền cho em' instead.
