Heshbon - חֶשְׁבּוֹן

Pronunciation: Hesh·bon

Literal translation: Check, bill, account



It can also mean ‘bank account’, but is mainly used to request the bill for your meal at a restaurant.

When you are ready to pay, ask the waiter “?אֶפְשֹׁר חֶשְׁבּוֹן בְּבַקָּשָׁה” - "Efshor heshbon bevakkashah?"
