splitting the bill
Dividing dining costs
Splitting the bill is dividing a restaurant check or other shared expense among the people who incurred it.
The split may be equal or proportional to what each person ordered: Let's just split the bill evenly.
The practice varies by culture and social context—some find it natural, others consider it cheap or awkward.
