सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Western consumer culture, the receipt is a vital legal document for consumer protection. Many stores have a 'no receipt, no return' policy, making this phrase a common part of the shopping ritual. Recently, 'receipts' has also become internet slang for 'proof' in social media arguments.
The Silent 'P'
In the word `receipt`, the letter 'p' is silent. Pronounce it like 're-SEET'. If you say the 'p', people might be confused!
Recipe vs. Receipt
Be careful! A `recipe` is instructions for cooking food. A `receipt` is for money. Don't ask a cashier for a 'recipe' unless you want to bake a cake with them.

What It Means
This phrase is the golden ticket of shopping. It asks for the official record of a transaction. In English, a receipt is that long slip of paper from the store. It shows the date, items, and price. When someone asks Do you have the receipt?, they want to see the proof. It is simple, direct, and very common.
How To Use It
You usually say this when money is involved. Use it when you are the cashier at a store. Use it when a friend wants to give you back money. You can also use it when you find a broken item. Just point to the item and ask the question. It works for both paper slips and emails.
When To Use It
Use it at the customer service desk for returns. Use it at a restaurant if the bill looks wrong. Use it when sharing costs for a group dinner. If you bought a gift for a friend, they might ask this. They need it if the shirt is too small. It is a very practical, everyday question.
When NOT To Use It
Don't use it for small, personal gifts unless asked. It can seem a bit rude or cheap. Don't use it if someone gives you a handmade item. There is no receipt for love! Also, don't use it in high-level business contracts. There, people use the word invoice instead. Keep receipt for stores and cafes.
Cultural Background
In many English-speaking countries, the return culture is huge. People buy things, try them, and take them back. You cannot do this without that little piece of paper. In the US and UK, cashiers almost always ask if you want it. Some people collect them in shoeboxes for tax season. It is a symbol of consumer rights and protection.
Common Variations
You might hear Got the receipt? in casual shops. Cashiers often ask Would you like your receipt? at the end. If it is digital, they ask Can I email the receipt?. If you lost it, you might sadly say I don't have the receipt. These all mean the same thing regarding purchase proof.
इस्तेमाल की जानकारी
The phrase is neutral and works in almost any situation involving a transaction. Just remember the silent 'p' to sound like a native speaker!
