Bandera de Chile

/Sounds like "eer" + "ah" (as in "father") + "MEE" (as in "me") + "tah" (as in "taco")/

To split the bill equally among everyone present in Chile — the unspoken agreement that each person pays their share so nobody gets stuck with the whole check. It's financial justice among friends.

Example

"Wanna go halves on the bill?"

"We always split the bill when we go out."
