معنی
Asking for the check in a restaurant.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Hungary, you don't leave the tip on the table. You tell the waiter the total amount you are paying. Service charge (szervizdíj) is increasingly included in the bill. Always check the bottom of the 'számla'. Waiters can be formal and may wait for you to make eye contact before approaching. The person who invites usually pays. Asking for 'külön számla' (separate bills) is common among friends but rare in business.
The 'Thank You' Trap
If you hand over a 5000 note for a 4500 bill and say 'Köszönöm' immediately, the waiter will assume you don't want change. Only say it after you get your change if you want it back!
Eye Contact
In Hungary, catching the waiter's eye and making a 'writing in the air' gesture is a common non-verbal way to signal you want the bill.

No, in a shop you just go to the register. This is specifically for table service.
Say 'Kérem a számlát, kártyával fizetnék'.
Because the bill is a 'definite' object. Hungarian grammar requires a different verb ending for definite objects.
It's expected (10-15%) unless a service charge is already included.
Say 'Külön szeretnénk fizetni' (We would like to pay separately).
A 'nyugta' is a simple receipt, a 'számla' is a more formal bill/invoice.
Yes, that is also very polite and common.
It comes from 'szám' (number), so it's literally a 'numbered list' or 'calculation'.
It is neutral-formal, making it safe for almost any situation.
Say 'Szerintem hiba van a számlán' (I think there is a mistake on the bill).
After you have finished everything you intend to consume.
Yes, 'Kérem számlát' is grammatically incorrect. You need the article 'a'.
