معنی
Requesting the check at a restaurant.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Mongolia, the person who initiates the 'Тооцоогоо авъя' is usually the one who pays for the whole table. Splitting the bill is rare among older generations. Younger people use 'Шот' (from Russian) frequently. They are also more likely to split the bill using banking apps like QPay. You will almost never use this phrase in a Ger. If you try to pay a nomad for a meal, they may be confused or insulted. Instead, give a small gift (like candy or tea). The host always pays. Asking for the bill is a signal that the business discussion is over and it's time for social talk or departure.
The Hand Signal
If the restaurant is loud, make a 'writing in the air' gesture with your hand while catching the waiter's eye. This is universally understood in Mongolia alongside the phrase.
Don't Wait
Mongolian waiters will almost never bring the bill until you ask. You could sit there for hours waiting!
