Pick up the tab
Hi i am student in S.Korea. nice to meet you~!!
Now, I am reading a grammer book, and I find the expression, "As long as you pick up the tab" , meaning "as long as you pay the bill".
However, after I read this expression, I can't find same expression in Google.
But, there a many expression "Pick up the tab", Is this an idiom?? there isn't this idiom in dictionary..
I wonder whether "As long as you pick up the tab" is natural or strange.
And Though this expression isn't used in usual, Formally is it possible to use?
I 'm so confused........
Thank you for reading, Good Luck

"As long as you pick up the tab" is natural. It would not be considered 'formal' since it is a common spoken utterance between friends.
