When you finish your meal at a restaurant, do you ask the waiter for the ticket, the bill, or the check?
If I am not mistaken, check is not especially common in British English. Bill seems to be the most widely used word, but I am curious about the use of ticket. Where I live, it is a common substitute for bill, except in expensive restaurants, where it would sound jarringly informal.
If you use more than one of the words that I have listed, do you find that your choice of word is influenced by the formality of the restaurant, or do you use them interchangeably?
