How to say "the bill, please" in Thai (with phonetics)
เช็คบิลด้วย
chék-bin dûuai
The bill, please.
When you are at the end of a meal in a restaurant, this is the everyday way to say "the bill, please" in Thai.
Tips
- Add a polite particle at the end: a man says ครับ khráp (high tone), a woman says ค่ะ khâ (falling tone). So: เช็คบิลด้วยครับ chék-bin dûuai khráp (man) / เช็คบิลด้วยค่ะ chék-bin dûuai khâ (woman).
- Tone tip: say chék sharply at a high pitch, keep bin flat, then let dûuai fall. Don't make the last word rise like an English question.
- Another common option is คิดเงินด้วย khít-ngən dûuai, which means 'please calculate the money'.
Word by word
- เช็คบิล chék-bin: to ask for / settle the bill (From English 'check bill'. Very common in restaurants. Tones: chék is high, bin is mid.)
- ด้วย dûuai: please (lit. 'also, along with') (Makes a request sound polite and natural. Falling tone.)
