They say that there's no such thing as a free lunch (= nothing of value is free), which means that, eventually, there's always one of these to pay!
BILL 請求書
- A bill is a written statement of how much money is owed for goods or services.
- bill とは、商品やサービスの対価として、どれだけの金額を支払うべきかが書かれた書面、つまり、請求書のことです。
- (customer to waiter, after finishing her meal)
Could I have the bill, please? - Our hotel bill came to (= the amount was) $530.
- (checking into a hotel)
I'd like to pay my bill in advance, if that's alright. - Just send the bill to my company. They'll take care of it.
- In my apartment building, bills for repairs are usually paid by the owner.
There you have it - another valuable edition of Berlitz WordMaster, a remarkable exception to the “No Free Lunch” Theory!
