KON-toh
'Il conto alla romana' (splitting the bill) is named after the practical Roman approach. In Italy, you must ask for the bill — the waiter will never bring it unsolicited, as it would be rude.
Il conto, per favore!
The bill, please!
Facciamo il conto alla romana — ognuno paga la sua parte.
Let's split the bill — everyone pays their share.
