How to Say ‘Would you like a receipt?’ in Portuguese
Quer recibo?
kehr ruh-SEE-boo
[kehr ruh-SEE-boo]
💬 Usage Tip: quer is the polite way to say "you want", and it's the same form as "he/she wants". There's no word for "a" here; Portuguese often drops it in quick questions like this.
🇵🇹 In Portugal: Always say yes if there was any dispute, since the receipt is your proof of the fare. You may be asked com contribuinte? "with tax number?", and you can simply answer não "no".
