What It Means
检票 is the standard way to say "checking tickets." It covers everything from a person punching a hole in paper to you scanning a QR code at a gate. It is a very practical, everyday term.
How To Use It
You will mostly use it as a verb. You can say 要检票了 when the line starts moving. You can also use it as a noun-phrase like 检票口 for the ticket gate. It is straightforward and hard to mess up.
When To Use It
Use this at train stations, movie theaters, or concerts. If you see a long line forming near a gate, that is the 检票 area. It is perfect for telling your friends to hurry up because the process has started.
When NOT To Use It
Don't use it for checking a bill at a restaurant. That is 结账. Also, don't use it for "checking" your email or homework. For those, use 检查. 检票 is strictly for entry tickets.
Cultural Background
In China, 检票 has gone high-tech. Most people now use their ID cards or phone codes. You might not even see a physical ticket anymore! The sound of the gate opening is a classic travel memory for many.
Common Variations
You will often hear 自动检票 for automatic gates. Another common one is 开始检票, which means "ticket checking has begun." This is the signal for everyone to grab their bags and run!
Nutzungshinweise
