Traps and common mistakes

Счёт or чек?

чек

чек ≠ check: the receipt you get after paying

Don't mix them up. Before you pay, ask for счёт (the bill); after you pay, you get чек (a receipt).

Официант, принесите, пожалуйста, счёт.

Waiter, the check, please.

Кассир выдал мне чек после оплаты.

The cashier gave me a receipt after I paid, not the check.

Счёт для ужина or счёт за ужин?

счёт за ужин

счёт за + what you pay for

Don't say "счёт для ужина". Say "счёт за ужин": a bill is always "за" something.

Это счёт за такси.

This is the bill for the taxi.
