    Problem description: How did the word "pay bill" come about as a checkout?

    When and where did it become popular?

    However, it is said that it is now accepted by many northerners, absorbed and used as foreign words, and is also included in the new edition of the "Modern Chinese Dictionary".

    The term "paying" in Cantonese has a long history. In Guangzhou's catering industry, there used to be a traditional practice of eating first and then paying the bill. In the old days, Chaqing Yuanju restaurant, after the customer finished eating, he beckoned the guy to "pay the bill" (check out).

    The sound of "paying" and "paying" is similar, but the meaning of the words is very different. The word "buried" in Cantonese dialect has many meanings, one of which has the meaning of "Qi Yin Aggregation", such as "burying the mouth" (wound healing), "burying share" (participating in a share), "burying the pile" (like-minded people often get together) and so on. As for the word "buy", it means "to buy something with money".

    If "pay" is used to describe the settlement after the meal, isn't that "taking money to buy a receipt after the meal"?

    Nowadays, it is not surprising that people outside the Cantonese dialect area misunderstand the meaning of Cantonese dialect and the folk culture of Guangzhou, and mistake "paying the bill" for "paying". However, the newspapers and periodicals published in Guangzhou also appear to write "pay for the high difference hall" as "paying", which is embarrassing.

    In the current view, paying and paying are actually the meaning of checkout, but this was not the case at the earliest.

    The term "pay the bill" has a long history and originates from Cantonese. Because of the catering industry in Guangzhou, there used to be a traditional practice of eating first and then paying the bill.

    The words "buried" and "bought" in Cantonese "pay the bill" and "pay the bill" are similar in sound and far away, and the meanings of these two words are also very different. The Cantonese word "buried" has many meanings, one of which has the meaning of aggregation and settlement, such as "burying the mouth" (wound healing), "burying share" (participating in a share), "burying the pile" (like-minded people often get together) and so on. In the past, the year-end settlement of business owners was called "burying the year"; When you go to the teahouse restaurant, you can pay the bill after eating, which is "paying the bill".

    The word "pay" originated from the commercial paper exchange between Guangzhou and Hong Kong in the early years, local payment, and remote pick-up, and the current payment "bought" was actually a bill of lading. It can be seen that there is a fundamental difference between "paying the bill" and "paying the bill".

    In recent years, some Cantonese words have become idioms for people everywhere. This question is an interesting story in the business and cultural exchanges between regions. Of course, it is not surprising that some people who do not understand the meaning of Cantonese dialect and the folk culture of Guangzhou mistake "paying" for "paying".

    Restaurant checkout is called "paying bills", which is the usage of the Cantonese dialect. "Guangzhou Dialect Dictionary" (Commercial Press, 1981 edition) has "pay the bill" but not "pay the bill", and the interpretation of "pay the bill" is "billing, settling the bill". This usage is the epitome of Cantonese culture and contains a perception of life by Cantonese people.

    There are three meanings: one is to remind the waiter to "bury it" (come over), and "bury" is to "approach", this kind of personal service can not only be convenient for customers, but also avoid the busyness of the restaurant; Second, the waiter can "bury" (write down) the dishes eaten by customers at any time, so that customers can understand consumption, and "bury" has the connotation of "accumulation"; Third, at the end of the meal, the waiter has "buried" (calculated) the customer's consumption amount in advance, so as to avoid the embarrassment of the customer waiting for a long time to check out, and "buryed" has the meaning of "settlement".

    Now in many parts of the country, the "pay" is actually a misuse of Cantonese "paying", checkout is not to buy the bill, using the "pay" table to settle the bill is not at all, nor can it reflect the rich connotation of "paying", and the use of "paying" in checkout is correct.
